Since 1965, the [[Ministry of Treasury and Finance (Turkey)|Treasury]] also gives money to political parties. According to the law, parties that participated in the last parliamentary elections and that passed the general threshold are paid 0.04% of the general budget revenues each year. Apart from this, the parties that received more than 3 percent of the votes despite being below the threshold are also given public funding in proportion of support. This amount triples in election years.<ref name="euronews2021">{{cite news |title=Siyasi partilere hazine yardımı nasıl belirleniyor? |url=https://tr.euronews.com/2021/11/02/siyasi-partilere-hazine-yard-m-nas-l-belirleniyor-2022-de-hangi-parti-ne-kadar-alacak |access-date=18 April 2022 |work=euronews |date=2 November 2021 |language=tr |archive-date=31 January 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220131105132/https://tr.euronews.com/2021/11/02/siyasi-partilere-hazine-yard-m-nas-l-belirleniyor-2022-de-hangi-parti-ne-kadar-alacak |url-status=live }}</ref>
