Timeless Records is a jazz record label based in The Netherlands.
Timeless was founded in Wageningen in 1975 by Wim Wigt. It has specialized in bebop, though it also did a sub-series of releases of Dixieland and swing recordings. As of 2000, the label had issued some 600 albums, and had two sub-labels, World Wide Jazz and Limetree Records.<ref>Barry Kernfeld, "Timeless". Grove Jazz online.</ref>
In the late 1970s, Timeless partnered with Muse Records to distribute Timeless Muse.
The label sponsored the Timeless All Stars, a six-piece ensemble founded by Wigt in 1981. The initial membership of the group was Harold Land, Curtis Fuller, Bobby Hutcherson, Cedar Walton, Buster Williams, and Billy Higgins.
