The Taiwan Democratic Self-Government League (TDSL), also known by its Chinese abbreviation Taimeng (simplified Chinese: 台盟; traditional Chinese: 臺盟), is one of the eight minor political parties in the People's Republic of China under the direction of the Chinese Communist Party.

The party was founded in the then-British colony of Hong Kong in November 1947, by members of the Taiwanese Communist Party who survived the February 28 incident. It is mostly composed of prominent people from Taiwan or people of Taiwanese heritage who now reside on the mainland. It is the eight-ranking minor party in China. It currently has 14 seats in the National People's Congress, 4 seats in the NPC Standing Committee and 20 seats in the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference; it is the smallest legally recognized minor political party in the People's Republic of China. TDSL supports Chinese unification. The party does not participate in the political system of Taiwan. Its current chairwoman is Su Hui.
