Law on Financing of Political Entities, Article 3; and Article 6, paragraph 1.

3. Political subject is a non profitable legal entity.
6.1. Political Subject shall not engage in a profitable business activity, except the sale of goods like: publications, editions, advertisings, posters with party emblem or acronym of political subject and other allowed legal sources. 

Comment

The legal status of political entities categorizes them as non-profit organizations. As a result, political entities are restricted from engaging in profit-generating financial activities, with the exception of selling goods like publications, advertising materials, and posters featuring the emblem or acronym of the political entity.
