15. If there is a limit on the amount a donor can contribute to a political party during a non-election specific period, what is the limit?
Japan
Answer
Annual limit is 20 million yen [I$ 178,000] (individuals); between 7,5 million yen to 100 million yen [I$ 67,000 to I$ 890,000] (corporations, labor unions and other organisations)
Comment
Specific ceilings apply for donors that are not individuals, determined by factors such as amount of capital and number of union members.
