Comment

There are no specified spending limits for candidates. However, the ECode sets a limit on the amount of the election fund of candidates,which can be considered a spending limit, but not necessarily. The limit of the election fund depends on the type of election, namely parliamentary, municipal, and presidential elections. The maximum limit of a candidate’s election fund assets should not exceed 500 thousand manats. The maximum limit of the election fund of a presidential candidate may not be more than 10 million manats. The maximum limit of the funds of candidates for municipality membership varies between 5.000 and 50.000 manats.
