14. Is there a limit on the amount a donor can contribute to a political party during a non-election specific period?

P 10, 'Section 66, paragraph 2 LPP establishes a ceiling for the total amount of donations which may be made by one natural or legal person to a political party in a calendar year, i.e. 23,473 TYR/10,908 EUR in 2009; this amount is increased as of the beginning of every calendar year at a value determined and announced in line with the provisions of the Tax Procedures Law.21 The aforementioned ceiling does not apply to certain organisationsmentioned above (e.g. professional organisations in the form of public institutions, trade unions and employers? associations etc., see paragraph 21 above) which may contribute to political parties in accordance with the special provisions of their founding law.' (Source: GRECO (2010) Evaluation Report on Turkey, Transparency of Party Funding (Theme II))

Limit does not apply to certain organisations.
