Who is eligible to open an entrepreneur account?

All individuals with an Estonian personal identification code (including e-residents) can open an entrepreneur account.

A business account is a good alternative if you don’t want to own a company. Taxes are calculated and paid automatically.

When using an entrepreneur account, the person cannot be a VAT liable person or operate as a self-employed person (FIE) in the same or similar area of activity.

If a customer is currently registered with the Unemployment Insurance Fund as unemployed and opens an entrepreneur account through the bank, this information will reach the Unemployment Insurance Fund and the customerโ€™s unemployed status will end, regardless of whether the customer has received any funds on the entrepreneur account.
