Imagine if doing your tax return was as easy as having a conversation. Tax Tim asks simple questions one-by-one about your incomes and expenses, then instantly prepares your fully compliant, fully completed tax return form. Get your tax return done in 10 minutes or less, quickly and easily. Tax Tim helps you do your own tax return with confidence, and find new tax deductions that help maximise your potential tax refund too.

Tax Tim started in 2011 with seed funding from Google and since that date has helped over 1.7 million South Africans make tax easy. Tax Tim is directly integrated with the South African Revenue Service (SARS) for one-click electronic submission of tax returns - the first true consumer alternative to SARS eFiling. Tax Tim also teaches more than 10,000 students at 11 universities and colleges across South Africa how to complete tax returns.

In 2015 Tax Tim launched in Namibia with tax and audit firm PwC, as the start of its African expansion (see ).
