Comment

According to the Georgian legislation, political parties and/or candidates are required to report on the identity of the persons or entities that have provided donations/contributions. The law on Political Unions of Citizens states that information on the donations received by a political party and the information on the registration place of the donor shall be publicly available. Moreover, a donor shall indicate his/her full name and personal number when donating. Monetary funds contributed without indicating this data shall be considered as anonymous donations, which is forbidden in Georgia.
