“Registered” here means not formally deregistered — it is a legal status, not proof a charity is operating. A long filing gap usually means the charity is dormant or defunct, even though it still shows as Registered on the official register. Non-filing alone doesn't automatically cancel a charity's registration.

Which New Zealand charities haven't filed a recent annual return? — 200 registered NZ charities have not filed an annual return for more than 2 years. Registered charities are required to file annual returns; long gaps can indicate the charity is inactive, has administrative problems, or is not meeting its filing obligations. Note that a charity can still show as "Registered" while being effectively dormant — non-filing doesn't automatically cancel registration. This is a factual filing-recency signal, not a finding of wrongdoing — verify on the official register.
