影响力交易在刑法第289 条（关于提议给予贿赂）和第283 条（滥用职位和/或权力以影响他人）中部分述及。所作限制是，第289 条未对“给予贿赂”的行为作出说明，因此第277 条也必须予以适用。此外，仅涵盖物质好处。
Trading in influence is partially addressed in Articles 289 (on bribe offering) and 283 of the Penal Code (abusing positions and/or powers to influence other persons). The limitations are that Article 289 does not describe the act of “bribe giving”, so that Article 277 must also be applied. Moreover, only material benefits are covered.
