Who this template is for

Gift Aid Declaration Form is built for small teams who need a reliable intake process who need to collect the same complete information from everyone.

  • Small teams who need a reliable intake process working in fundraising & alumni.
  • Teams who need to collect the same complete information from everyone without writing code or paying for a custom build.
  • Anyone replacing chasing missing details over email with one structured record per enquiry.
  • Respondents are the people you send it to — the form asks them 12 questions across 3 screens.

Why this form is useful

It removes the cost of chasing missing details over email and turns each submission into a record your team can act on immediately.

  • 7 questions are required, so submissions arrive complete instead of needing a follow-up email.
  • It collects a verified email address so replies and confirmations land.
  • It records a signature you can keep as proof of agreement.
  • It pins the request to a specific date.
  • It captures a full postal address.
  • It captures a numeric value you can filter and sort on.
  • Conditional logic hides 4 questions until they are relevant — shorter forms convert better than long ones.
  • Splitting the form across 3 pages keeps each screen short and shows respondents how much is left.

Logic and conditions blueprint

Exactly how this form behaves as it is answered — 4 conditional rules ship with it.

  • Features advanced show logic: if “What does this declaration cover?” is A single donation, the form dynamically exposes “Date of the donation”. Otherwise that question never appears.
  • Features conditional validation: if “What does this declaration cover?” is A single donation, “Donation amount (£)” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
  • Features advanced show logic: if “What does this declaration cover?” is This donation and the past 4 years, the form dynamically exposes “Gifts you would like included”. Otherwise that question never appears.
  • Features advanced show logic: if “Has your name changed since you last gave?” is Yes, the form dynamically exposes “Previous name”. Otherwise that question never appears.
  • All 4 rules are editable in the Logic tab, and the built-in checker warns about rules that contradict each other.

Questions about this shared form

Can one declaration cover past donations?

Yes — choose the option covering the past four years and the form opens a space to list the gifts you would like included.

Why is the home address required?

HMRC matches claims to donors by house number and postcode. Without them the claim cannot be processed.

What if the donor stops paying tax?

They must tell you, and you must stop claiming. The form captures that undertaking in writing.

Do we need a signature?

A written declaration submitted online is acceptable; the signature field is there if you prefer to hold one.

Is the Gift Aid Declaration Form template free to use?

Yes. You can preview and test Gift Aid Declaration Form on this page without an account, and take a copy into your own HelloForms workspace on the free plan. There is nothing to install and no card required to publish it.

What does the Gift Aid Declaration Form template ask for?

It asks 12 questions across 3 pages, 7 of which are required. Every question is listed in full further down this page, and each one can be renamed, reordered, made optional or deleted after you copy the template.
