A tax consultancy that loves small business.
About us
Relax Tax is a family run, Cape Town consultancy that is passionate about helping small business, freelancers and sole proprietors. We focus on this niche market because we get to do a lot more than simply file your tax returns, we can help wherever we can to make your business or career a success.
Not to mention that our specialty lies in clients who’ve either avoided or made a mess of their last tax return, we’re experts on getting you out of trouble with SARS.
“We aren’t in this business because we love tax. We’re in it because we love entrepreneurs.”

Tess Fairweather
Tess started Relax Tax in 2001 by helping out a freelancer friend who was in trouble with SARS, who was so pleased that they told their friends. Soon the word spread and Tess has been kicking down SARS’ doors and helping clients ever since. Her nearly 50 years of business, banking and tax experience is what our clients value most.
Tess is registered at SARS as PR0005206 as well as the SA Institute of Tax Practitioners.
Garth McGahey
Whilst Garth started his career in business economics, he has worked across various industries and realised, alike Tess, that his passion lies in small business and entrepreneurs. He has a knack for setting his clients at ease and spreading laughter around the office.
Garth is registered at SARS as PR0098138 as well as the SA Institute of Tax Practitioners.
Sybil
Sybil is our SARS expert, as she is a retired SARS employee with over 40 years of experience. She knows the ins-and-outs of bureaucracy, which has become invaluable in solving disputes, logjams, objections and complaints.
