• 1. In the case of the election of members of the House of Representatives, a deposit of €11,250 must be paid to the State for each group of lists, each set of identical lists not forming part of a group, and each independent list. Alternatively, if the candidate list is prefixed with the designation of a grouping that, according to the articles of association, has its registered office in Bonaire, Sint Eustatius, or Saba, or, if it concerns a candidate list prefixed with no designation, if the first-mentioned candidate is a resident of Bonaire, Sint Eustatius, or Saba, a deposit of USD 11,250 must be paid to the State.

• 2. Article H 4, eighth paragraph, applies mutatis mutandis.

• 3. The person who made the payment referred to in the first paragraph will receive proof thereof. When submitting a list for one or more constituencies, proof must be provided.

• 4. If no valid list is submitted, the deposit will be returned to the person who made the payment after the State has determined the election results.

• 5. After the central electoral committee has determined the election results, the deposit will be returned to the person who made the payment, unless the vote total for the group of lists, the set of identical lists not part of a group, or the standalone list is less than 75 percent of the electoral quota referred to in Article P 5. In that case, the deposit will be forfeited to the State.
