what documents are required by non profits to get discount in atlassian products?

[Rajul Jain]

we are registered Non Profit in India, we are looking to get discounts, as its too expensive for us to use at normal price

Generally, it's a government approved doc that shows your organisation is a secular charity, unaffiliated with government, political parties, or education. 

In the UK for example, that can be as simple as just the registered charity number (because anyone can check all the details with that)

Go to https://www.atlassian.com/software/views/community-license-request and answer the questions, that will ask you for appropriate docs.

Thanks for answer, you mentioned :- "unaffiliated with government, political parties, or education" What does it mean, in India we have registered trust wherein the education, skill development and environment protection is primary objectives of the non profit, are we qualified for community discounts

It means your charity must not be run by the government, it must not have a political affiliation, and it cannot be a school, college or university.

I don't know how charities work outside the UK (But I'd done a lot of work with UK charities).  In the UK some of our schools are run by charitable organisations, we've got non-governmental organisations that qualify as charities despite being effectively run out of Whitehall, and heck, even the liars in the "leave" campaign tried to do claim they were a charity at one point.  All are attempts at tax avoidance really, and Atlassian rightly will not recognise them as charities.

There's nothing that rules out your charity doing education as part of its goals and still getting a charity licence.  For example, Age Concern and the Royal National Institute for the Blind here both do a lot of outreach education, training people to care, or at least be more aware of the problems that come with age or less-than-average visual abilities, but they're not schools.

You'll simply need to ask.  Fill in the form and they'll check if you qualify
