Cape Independence Party

The Cape Independence Party (CAPEXIT) (Afrikaans: Kaapse Onafhanklikheids Party), previously called the Cape Party, is a political party in South Africa which seeks to use all constitutional and legal means to bring about Cape independence, which includes the entire Western Cape, Northern Cape (excluding two districts), six municipalities in the Eastern Cape, and one municipality in the Free State. The area includes all municipalities in those provinces with an Afrikaans-speaking majority. In 2009, it was claimed to have had a membership of approximately 1,000 people across South Africa, but official membership figures are not made public. The party currently holds two seats on the Cape Town City Council.

It is registered with the Independent Electoral Commission (IEC) and was on the provincial ballot of the Western Cape in the South African general elections of 2009, where it received 2,552 votes. It again contested in the municipal elections of 2016, where it received 4,473 votes. In the elections of 2019, it received 9,331 votes.

The party did not compete in the 2024 South African general election after failing to meet the IEC's new signature requirements as stipulated in the 2023 Electoral Amendment Bill. Fellow pro-independence parties, the Freedom Front Plus (FF+) and newly formed Referendum Party (RP) did contest the elections.
