27. Are there provisions requiring donations to go through the banking system?

34. Identification data of each person providing a donation to a political party or movement, irrespective of the value of such a donation, must be entered in a specific register, which is to be kept together with accounting records.
35. Contributions amounting to over 3 000 € in a calendar year must be evidenced by a relevant document attached to the balance sheet and containing also the identification data of donors.
36. As highlighted before, it is possible to collect small amounts from individual donors during conferences, festivals, rallies and other events promoted by a political party/movement. In those cases, while it is not required to track the identity of the individual donor because of the low value of his/her respective contribution, it is nevertheless mandatory to specify the total amount of the anonymous donations collected in the parties’ financial accounts (Article 13, Law No. 170/2005).
