Background check

Short answer — no.

The background check we offer has nothing to do with applying for e-Residency.
Estonia’s Police and Border Guard Board (PBGB) carries out its own screening of every e-Residency applicant and charges the state fee set in the Identity Documents Act and the State Fees Act. Those fees vary by pick-up location (Tallinn: no extra charge; embassies: + €20; partner hubs such as Seoul, Tokyo or San Francisco: local service fee).

What e-Residency is — and isn’t

• A government-issued digital ID that lets you sign, authenticate and run an EU company online.

• Not a form of citizenship, tax residency, visa, residence permit, or travel document.

Our background-check service is designed for corporate due-diligence on Estonian natural or legal persons; it neither replaces nor influences the PBGB’s screening for e-Residency applications. For official details on e-Residency requirements and fees, see the PBGB website.

End-to-end background-check service is fast, confidential, and fully compliant

Once your order and payment are confirmed we e-mail you a short intake form asking for the target’s key identifiers—typically a full name, Estonian personal ID-code (isikukood) or company registration number. After we receive this information our compliance team:

1. Searches official Estonian sources – Commercial Register, Beneficial Ownership Register, Land Register, tax and court databases, sanctions lists and press archives.

2. Verifies and consolidates the findings – matching records across databases, flagging inconsistencies and potential risks.

3. Drafts a concise report – summarising ownership, management, legal disputes, insolvency history, licences, sanctions, PEP status and any adverse media.

The finished report is delivered as a secure PDF to your chosen e-mail address—usually within two to three business days—so you can make informed decisions based on reliable, up-to-date data. All searches are confidential and performed in accordance with Estonian data-protection law.
