Foreign Funding
Foreign Funding Advisory for NGOs and NPOs
Legal guidance on foreign contributions, donor arrangements, documentation and the regulatory requirements that may apply to Pakistani nonprofit organisations.
Foreign funding can trigger separate regulatory requirements
An organisation may be properly registered and still have additional obligations when it receives foreign contributions. The legal review should consider the organisation’s registration basis, donor, proposed project, funding route and the approvals or reporting requirements that apply.
How we assist
