Comment

In accordance with Georgian law, corporations with government contracts are generally permitted to make political donations. However, there is a specific exception outlined in the legislation. A donor, which is a legal entity, cannot contribute if 15% or more of its actual annual revenue from the previous calendar year or the election year (up to Election Day) is derived from simplified state procurements. This restriction applies to procurements conducted for the donor's benefit or for the benefit of an enterprise established with its participation.
