"Each contribution or donation made to a single candidate by a person for the purpose of electioneering shall -

a) in case of the Presidential election, not exceed R1,000,000; and 

b) in case of the National Assembly election, not exceed R250,000."

(Section 93(7), Elections Act, Cap 68A as modified and completed by Act 27 of 2014).

Comment

Same donation limits apply since the definitions of contribution and donation encompass "any assistance or service provided by any person."
