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.
