The coat of arms of Timb� is prescribed by Municipal Law No. 77 promulgated on 22 August 1950.

Article 2.
The coat of arms of the municipality of Timb� is composed of a shield surmounted by a mural crown proper to municipalities. A red Maltese cross quarters the shield into four parts, in the center a blue escutcheon inscribed the date "26 de marzo de 1894", or, the date of inauguration of the municipality. Since Timb� was separated from Blumenau, its coat of arms is inspired from the arms of Blumenau. So is the sinister lower field, featuring a flowering field ("Blumenau") on the bank of river Itaja� lit by the Southern Cross.
The upper sinister quarter features the arms of Brazil.
The upper dexter field features an anchor and a key, although parts of the arms of Blumenau, meaning that, incorporated to the country and the state, patriotic Timb� moves with Santa Catarina and Brazil to a glorious future patroned by the Cross of Christ that saw the birth of a nation [...]
The lower dexter quarter features the confluence of two rivers, Cedars' River and the Blessed River, where the municipal seat is located, and a farmer. Timb� owes its prosperity to intelligent and rational agriculture, which is highlighted by an ox drawing a plow.
Industry, growing year after year, is symbolized by the cogwheel superimposed by a blue scroll placed beneath the shield.
The scroll is inscribed with the motto or "CLARA EX STIRPE", "Descending from an Illustrious Branch", here, Blumenau [...].
Supporting the shield, sinister, tobacco plants [...]. Dexter rice leaves and ripe panicles green and or. These are the municipality's two main crops.
