Company Formation in Estonia
Establish an Estonian business with ease. Share capital can be paid either as a monetary or non-monetary contribution, and corporate income tax is only levied on distributed profits, allowing your company to reinvest in growth (new equipment, shares, office premises, etc.) with a 0% corporate tax rate on retained earnings. Minimum capital is 0,01 EUR.
To complete the formation process, you need to order our address service, Package ONE. If your company requires a contact person in addition to the address service, you can opt for Package TWO, which includes both address and Contact Person services.
For clients who do not require Package ONE or Package TWO, the total price will be 349 EUR. In this case, an additional payment link will be sent separately.
Key benefits include:
- Multiple shareholders allowed
- Trading of physical goods permitted
- Founding documents are available in both Estonian and English formats, freely downloadable post-registration
- For use outside Estonia, the documents may need to be translated by a sworn translator and certified by a Public Notary
Identification requirements
The entire process takes place in the e-environment of the commercial register. This requires possession of an Estonian e-resident card, an Estonian ID Card, Mobile ID, or Smart ID.
Alternative solution
We can utilize a Power of Attorney if these options are unavailable. To do this, you must send us an apostilled power of attorney issued by a notary in your local country. A sworn translator will translate it in Estonia to comply with local legislation.

Additional info:
If a company or nonprofit association is established remotely, no documents will be received on paper immediately.
Each founder can download and print copies of the commercial register free of charge.
In the exceptional case that the incorporation takes place with a Public Notary, the verified documents on paper may also be received.
If there is a need to use these papers abroad, they must be legalized through an apostille:
The address must always be up to date.
The address must be updated whenever your company’s legal address changes or you lose the right to use it. The address recorded in the Commercial Register must always remain valid for receiving official notices.

Adding the address during company formation
-
In the e-Business Register formation wizard, the founder enters the address once; it automatically appears in the foundation decision, the AoA, and the future registry card.
-
You can choose our address from the drop-down list or enter it manually—full instructions are included in your order confirmation.
Only a management board member who holds a valid Estonian ID card, Mobile-ID, Smart-ID, or e-Residency card may submit the address change online.
Each required signer must have the same form of digital ID; if an owner or other authorised person lacks it, the change can still be completed either by granting a notarised power of attorney or by appearing in person before an Estonian notary.
You can download detailed step-by-step guides from your order confirmation, and if you can’t find them, we’ll resend them right away. Our team will guide you through every step—from drafting the minutes to uploading the files—so your Tallinn business address is listed on the registry card without delay.
