Overview

• The total upper limit for state party funding has climbed from €219.24 million to €225.38 million.
• The increase follows a 2.83 percent rise in the 'Parteien-Index', which combines 70 percent consumer prices with 30 percent public-sector wages.
• Per-vote subsidies will be set at €1.21 for the first four million valid votes and €0.99 for each additional vote.
• Actual payouts will depend on each party’s electoral performance and the volume of membership fees and donations they report.
• The next statutory adjustment of the funding cap is scheduled for spring 2026 based on 2025 price developments.
