42. In addition, amendments were made to the Law on State Registration of Legal Persons, State Record-registration of Institutions and Individual Entrepreneurs, which define the requirements for a political party to apply for a statement of information on the compliance of the party statute with the Law on Political Parties for the purpose of registering the electoral lists. In particular, a political party shall submit an application to the Agency not earlier than six days and before the calling of the relevant elections and not later than eight days before the expiry of the time limit of nomination of the political parties (alliances of political parties) participating in the elections. The Agency has “a week” to review the documents and issue a statement (Article 66.4 of the Law on State Registration). Parties are also obliged to pay a state duty, which is not defined in this law.35
