Foreign Contribution Disclosure for Tax-Exempt Organizations

Requires tax-exempt nonprofits above a certain size to report foreign donations on their annual tax filings, including a separate breakdown for donations from countries of national security concern.

  • Population Scope Medium Applies to all IRC 501(c) organizations meeting the $200,000 receipts or $500,000 assets thresholds — a broad but bounded class of nonprofits, not the general public.
  • Budgetary Magnitude Low No funds are authorized, appropriated, or obligated; the provision imposes a reporting duty only.
  • Legal / Regulatory Depth Medium Creates a new statutory reporting mandate binding a large class of organizations, but it is a disclosure obligation layered onto existing returns rather than a new substantive prohibition or enforceable entitlement.
  • Degree of Discretion Granted Medium The Secretary of the Treasury holds 'may' authority to issue regulations on collection mechanics, while the core reporting duty is mandatory — a mixed posture that limits but does not eliminate agency discretion.
  • Implementation & Enforcement Burden Medium Imposes a recurring annual compliance obligation on thousands of nonprofits and requires the IRS to process and oversee new return data, but relies on existing filing infrastructure rather than standing up new enforcement machinery.
  • Temporal Commitment High Persists indefinitely once in effect, binding future organizations and Congress until affirmatively repealed.
