Hello. I have the pleasure to inform that last Friday, 19th February 2021, Wikimedia España was recognized as a charity (entidad de utilidad pública) in Spain by the Ministry of the Interior and it was published at the Boletín Oficial del Estado (Official State Gazette). This is a recognition of the hard work the association has been doing last 10 years in Spain. To be recognized, it has been a long process, and we were waiting for an answer for this application since the end of 2019. I want to say thanks to all people who worked to achieve that.

Yes. More or less, but in Spain, that 1% assigned to any charity does not exist. People can give money to any association and the following year, is it is a charity, there is a reduction of taxes over that amount. And other duties and benefits. El 2021-02-24 13:02, Dorożyński Janusz escribió:

In Poland it means that 1 % of personal tax can be transferred to WM Polska. Anyway, it is great news, congratulations! Reg.

Congratulations to Wikimedia Espana! I know how much work it is since I did it for Wikimedia Canada, and we got recognized as a charity by the Canadian Government on June 2020.
