Why Choose Estonia

Digital Administration

Estonian company registration operates within a fully digital system. Most procedures are completed online, and reporting remains predictable. This suits international founders and technology-focused businesses.

Corporate Tax Model

Another reason to open a company in Estonia is the tax structure. Retained profits are taxed only when distributed. This can support reinvestment, though accounting duties still apply.

EU Market Access

Estonian company registration provides access to the European Union framework. At the same time, you need to follow local compliance rules from the start.

Steps

01

Choosing a name for a future company in Estonia

The client needs to provide 3 variant names of the company. We will check the availability of these variants for registration and offer free options for the final choice. If all three names are filled, we will ask for additional ones. Three names provision isn't a mandatory requirement, but will speed up the verification process.

02

Preparation of documents.

The client needs to prepare personal documents for company registration. Preparation can be carried out in parallel with the first stage. The exact list of documents depends on the characteristics of the future company. Usually, a copy of the passport and confirmation of the address of the company's participants, as well as a power of attorney, should be provided.

03

Preparation of registration forms.

A package of documents is formed for submission to the Register based on the data provided by the client.

04

Submission of documents for registration

The collected package of documents is submitted to the Register. After that, the documents are processed by the registrar and the company is entered into the Register database.

05

Obtaining confirmation of company registration.

After entering the company into the Register, you can see its registration data in it and if necessary order paper versions of the statutory documents with or without certification. The specialists of our company will help you with all the necessary certification (notarization, apostille) and translations into other languages, if necessary.
