Yes, it’s mandatory. When operating a business in Estonia, it is essential to comply with local accounting and legal standards to ensure that your company is adhering to the best practices in accounting.

Keeping your books in order is crucial to providing financial transparency to your creditors and business partners and ensuring the accurate calculation of taxes.

There are three main accounting policies that you must follow in Estonia:

  1. The Accounting Act of the Republic of Estonia – this law outlines the requirements for accounting practices, including bookkeeping, accounting documentation, and financial reporting.
  2. Estonia’s Good Accounting Practices – these guidelines provide recommendations for accounting standards and practices, including financial statement preparation, accounting documentation, and audit procedures.
  3. The guidelines issued by the Accounting Board of the Republic of Estonia – this is an advisory board that issues guidance on accounting practices and standards, including the interpretation of accounting regulations and the development of new accounting principles.

By adhering to these accounting policies, you can ensure that your company’s financial information is accurate and transparent.

Moreover, accounting is the basis for preparing the annual report. Submission of the annual report is mandatory, if not submitted, the state imposes a fine, and in some cases also forced termination.

Standard Procedure for Non-Payment of Services:

The established protocol for addressing non-payment of services typically involves several steps to ensure a fair resolution. These steps are as follows:

  1. Reminder Letter: A formal communication is sent to the debtor, notifying them of the outstanding payment and requesting immediate settlement. The letter serves as an initial reminder and allows the debtor an opportunity to rectify the situation promptly.
  2. Repeated Reminder Letter: In the event that the debtor fails to respond or settle the outstanding amount after the initial reminder, a subsequent reminder letter is sent as a follow-up measure. This letter reiterates the urgency of payment and emphasizes the potential consequences of continued non-compliance.
  3. SMS Reminder: In addition to written communication, a text message reminder is commonly employed as a supplementary means of notification. This method aims to further prompt the debtor to take immediate action in resolving the unpaid balance.
  4. Register of Debtors: If the debtor remains unresponsive or persistent in non-payment, their details may be recorded in a register of debtors. This record serves as a reference for future actions and ensures transparency within the process.
  5. Court Proceedings: Should the previous steps prove ineffective, legal action may be pursued through court proceedings. This involves initiating a formal lawsuit against the debtor, presenting the case before a judge or magistrate, and seeking a legal judgment in favor of the owed amount.
  6. Bailiff or Debt Collection Company: If necessary, following a court judgment, the services of a bailiff or a reputable debt collection company may be enlisted. These professionals are authorized to take further action to recover the owed funds, which may include seizing assets, enforcing payment plans, or implementing other legal measures.

It is important to note that throughout this process, initial transaction costs incurred as a result of pursuing the outstanding payment will be included. Additionally, as the proceedings progress, state fees and bailiff costs, which are associated with legal action and the involvement of authorized officials, will be added to the outstanding balance.

For physical persons, an address provides a means to receive letters, small packages, and other physical mail. Additionally, for individuals seeking to launch their own businesses, it is mandatory to have an address for establishing a company in Estonia.

For juridical persons, an address is necessary for a new company to be set up or for an existing company. Utilizing a professional address can increase the credibility and professionalism of a business and make it more approachable to potential clients. It also provides a location for official correspondence and legal documentation, making it easier for companies to stay on top of important matters.

Furthermore, an address can be used as a point of contact for clients, suppliers, and business partners. By having a fixed physical location, it becomes easier for clients, stakeholders, etc to find and interact with the company. This can lead to increased business opportunities and improved relationships with clients and partners.

In addition to these benefits, an address can also help companies comply with legal requirements. For example, certain types of businesses may need to have a physical address in order to obtain necessary licenses and permits. By having a registered address, companies can avoid potential legal issues and ensure that they are operating in accordance with the law.

Overall, whether you are a physical or juridical person, utilizing an address can provide numerous benefits for both personal and professional use.

Background check (2)

To clarify, this is not a background check related to obtaining an Estonian e-residency.

E-residency is a transnational digital identity designed to facilitate location-independent business administration. It provides access to secure and convenient digital services that enhance credibility and trust online. Please note that e-residency does not confer citizenship, tax residency, residence, or right of entry to Estonia or the European Union. It is not a visa or residence permit, and the e-resident digital-ID card does not function as a physical identification or travel document.

Applicants for e-residency are subject to a state fee of 100 euros. Depending on the selected pick-up location, additional fees may apply. If an office in Estonia is chosen as the pick-up location, there is no additional fee. If a foreign representation of Estonia is selected, an additional fee of 20 euros will be charged upon application. If the pick-up location is Seoul, South Korea; Tokyo, Japan; or San Francisco, USA, an additional service fee will apply, which must be paid directly to the service provider upon collecting the document.

Please note that the Police and Border Guard Board conducts background checks on all e-residency applicants. More detailed information about applicable fees for each location is displayed upon selecting a specific pick-up location. The laws and regulations governing e-residency applications can be found in the Identity Documents Act and the State Fees Act. The terms and conditions for the use of personal identification documents of the Republic of Estonia can be accessed here.

The Economic Operators Registration and Identification System, commonly referred to as EORI, is a registration system that is mandatory for companies engaged in importing or exporting goods from or to non-EU countries within the EU.

The EORI code is specific to the country where the company is established and is required for customs clearance procedures.

For instance, if an Estonian company imports goods directly to Germany, it is still required to obtain an EORI number in Estonia, as this is where the company is registered. This ensures compliance with the EU’s customs regulations and facilitates the efficient movement of goods across borders.

For physical persons, an address provides a means to receive letters, small packages, and other physical mail. Additionally, for individuals seeking to launch their own businesses, it is mandatory to have an address for establishing a company in Estonia.

For juridical persons, an address is necessary for a new company to be set up or for an existing company. Utilizing a professional address can increase the credibility and professionalism of a business and make it more approachable to potential clients. It also provides a location for official correspondence and legal documentation, making it easier for companies to stay on top of important matters.

Furthermore, an address can be used as a point of contact for clients, suppliers, and business partners. By having a fixed physical location, it becomes easier for clients, stakeholders, etc to find and interact with the company. This can lead to increased business opportunities and improved relationships with clients and partners.

In addition to these benefits, an address can also help companies comply with legal requirements. For example, certain types of businesses may need to have a physical address in order to obtain necessary licenses and permits. By having a registered address, companies can avoid potential legal issues and ensure that they are operating in accordance with the law.

Overall, whether you are a physical or juridical person, utilizing an address can provide numerous benefits for both personal and professional use. From receiving physical mail to establishing a professional presence, an address is a crucial component of any successful business or personal venture.

Trademark registration (2)

  1. Exclusive rights

    Once your Trademark is registered, you will have exclusive rights and no one else will be able to use the same mark. Trademark registration is one of the most powerful tools how companies are able to protect themselves from unfair competition and avoid that someone else will use their brand for business purposes. It is proven to be very useful to Fintech startups, because it is easier (and cheaper) to register your Trademark than to go to court and prove that someone has used your brand name if you haven’t registered Trademark. So far there are already several EU Members States (Estonia, Germany, Spain, etc.) who are checking EUIPO existing trademarks before registering a company. This means that if you have registered Trademark with your company name, no one else will be able to register a company with the same name, unless you will grant them permission. It is expected that with development of technologies, more EU Member States will start to check existing TM’s before approving company registration.

  2. Additional value to your company

    Trademark Registration significantly increases value of the company. This aspect is extremely important to companies who seek to receive funding from investors and they need to determine pre-seed value of the company. One of the key aspects which goes in to pre-money valuation is Protection of Intellectual Property. Before investors will invest in your business, they have to make sure that their investments will be protected and one of the best ways how to protect your brand is by Trademark Registration. It is proven that startups with registered Trademarks are valued higher than the ones who haven’t registered any Trademarks.

  3. Brand development

    With existing trademark which covers all EU, company will be able to develop business under the same name in all EU countries. This is very useful for startups who intend to start small and then scale their business. In startup environment where investor pitches are usually publicly available because they are streamed online, it is possible that someone will register a company with the same name in other Member State and later on will use it against you. This will cause problems for your business to expand to new market and it is possible that you will have to do it under different business name.
