How to use OSCR Online to submit an online annual return
Every year, every charity registered in Scotland must send us their:
- Annual accounts
- Trustees’ Annual Report
- External scrutiny report, and
- Online annual return.
Charities must submit this information to us within 9 months of their accounting ‘year end’.
Every charity in Scotland should use our online service, OSCR Online.
More information on our online services can be found on our FAQs page.

PLEASE NOTE:
We will accept typed/digital signatures on the documentation you send us as part of the online annual return.
In addition to this guidance, OSCR held a webinar in September 2022 that discusses the basics of using OSCR Online to submit an online annual return.
