The FDA Daily Value (DV) is 11.5 g of fiber per 1000 kcalories; 25 g for a 2000 kcalorie diet.
Note that DRI (Daily Intake) is slightly higher at 14 g per 1000-kcalorie intake.
The World Health Organization (WHO) an upper limit (UI) of 40 grams of dietary fiber per day.
More than the UI has been noted to have drawbacks in terms of health effects. A person who has a small capacity and eats mostly high-fiber foods may not be able to take in enough food to meet energy and/pr nutrient needs. The malnourished, the elderly and children to vegan diets are especially vulnerable to this problem.
Launching into a high-fiber diet can also temporary bouts of abdominal discomfort, gas, diarrhea and, more seriously, can obstruct the GI tract. Increase fiber intake over several weeks to avoid these issues.
Please note that the DV, DRI and UI for fiber is measured in grams as opposed to milligrams.
