Taxation of the Church is a fairly common topic in public debate. On the one hand, it is logical that the Church institution should not influence the state, nor should the state interfere in the internal life of the faithful. However, what history with the money the faithful spend on Church? Start with the fact that all religious associations, are exempt from the obligation to keep tax records. Therefore, it is not known exactly how much money flows in, and how much flows out of Church institutions. Cash that is collected during any kind of mass or service does not go into the pockets of priests, of course.
It is also not externally recorded in any way. Thus, it is logical that these are moneywhich are not subject to taxation. They are used for the upkeep of church buildings, own expenses and charitable purposes.
Such revenues depend primarily on the size of the parish and the number of faithful. This money should be viewed as money that the faithful use to support their own community; it is given away voluntarily. From the legal side, it should be viewed as a kind of tax deduction. The faithful can also make donations to the Church. The faithful are encouraged to make donations through the income tax credits the state gives to a person who wishes to make such a donation. The tax credit limit is 6 percent of the taxpayer's annual income. This is known as a donation for worship purposes
