Incorporate in Estonia

$1,950.00

Set up an Estonian Limited Company

Estonia is, perhaps, the most technologically advanced country in the world when it comes to government. During the last years the legislative body, voting, education, justice, healthcare, banking, taxes, and policing areas have been digitized in a single platform under the E-Estonia Project.

In addition, Estonia is the first country in the world to introduce the E-Residency concept, which is a transnational digital identity card for non-Estonian citizens issued and backed by the Estonian Government.

Estonia has become a technology hub during the last decade where dozens of successful startups have taken off.

Tech entrepreneurs are usually attracted by its simple and relatively reasonable tax environment – no tax on retained profits and a 20% tax on distributed profits. Also, its ease of corporate compliance as all mandatory filings can be done electronically via its e-Residency card. This card is a transnational digital identity card for non-Estonian citizens issued and backed by the Estonian Government.

For blockchain companies, Estonia provides the most affordable and easiest licensing process for Cryptocurrency exchanges and Cryptocurrency Wallet Service Providers. At the time of writing, more than 800 ‘crypto’ licenses have been already issued.

Obtaining a ‘crypto’ license costs a few thousand dollars and there are no additional capitalization requirements other than the EUR 2,500 standard incorporation cost for all private limited companies.

Estonian companies may also be considered by certain e-commerce and internet entrepreneurs as it offers a low-cost set up and has access to the broad range of payment processing options in the European Economic Area.

Private Limited Company Formation (Osaühing, OÜ) and First-Year Fees – USD 1,950.00 (All Included)

Note that our incorporation and annual corporate service fees are “all-included fees”, and cover all the required services to incorporate an Estonian private limited company, and keep it in good standing, as well as government fees and duties, disbursements such as notarial and courier fees.

Time to Form the Company

The process can be done either in-person or remotely via Power of Attorney or via e-Residency (if the shareholders have an e-residency card). It takes around 2-3 business days to get the company approved from the date we receive the Power of Attorney.

  • Note that we can also assist the client with opening Electronic Money Institutions Accounts in the EEA at no additional cost.

    Our bank account opening service is not just a mere introduction to the bank. We assist you in filling out the business plan forms appropriately and help you understand and provide business details, commercial information, and purpose/use of the bank account that a given bank wants to know in order to approve your account application.

    Banks want certainty and clarity on how the account will be used. Everything must be watertight. We will work with you to make sure there is minimal ‘back and forth’ and a smooth account opening process.

    Estonian Company Annual Fees – USD 1,400.00 (payable one year after incorporation, and annually thereafter)

    Other Services (Optional)
