How tax consulting works

Why do founders choose Estonia?

Estonia taxes company profit when it leaves the company, not when it is earned — so the profit you keep and reinvest goes on working for you, free of corporate income tax.

0% Tax on profit kept in the company
22% Tax on profit paid out, on the gross amount

Take €1,000 of profit out of the company

  • reaches you
  • corporate income tax
€220 is 22% of the €1,000 that left …and 28.21% of the €780 that arrived

What do founders ask us?

What kind of business can I run through an Estonian company?

Any lawful one. IT and consulting, design and marketing, SaaS and apps, online stores on Amazon, Shopify, eBay or your own site — dropshipping included. Only some areas need an activity licence or a notice of economic activity before you start, financial and crypto-asset services among them. Tell us what you plan, and we’ll flag it if yours may be one.

What is e-Residency, and does it change how my accounting works?

e-Residency is an Estonian government-issued digital identity. It lets you set up and run an Estonian company online from anywhere and sign documents and filings digitally. It is not residency, not a visa and not a tax status: the company you run with it carries exactly the same reporting duties as one owned by someone living in Tallinn.

Do I need a business bank account?

In practice, yes. Customers pay the company, and the company pays its taxes and bills — all simpler, and cleaner in the books, through an account in the company’s own name. Many founders start with an EU payment institution rather than a traditional bank. e-Residency doesn’t guarantee an account: banks and payment institutions run their own checks. So start early — we’ll help you get ready for it.

What do you need from me to get started?

Usually four things: your company’s registry code; access to its bank and payment-provider data; its books and filed returns so far, last year’s annual report included, if the company isn’t new; and your VAT number if you are registered. We confirm the exact list after your first message, because it depends on the service.

When does my company have to register for VAT?

Once your taxable turnover in Estonia passes €40,000, counted from the start of the calendar year, registration stops being optional — and the application has to reach the tax authority within 3 working days of the day you cross it. Crossing the threshold does not register you; applying does. Below the threshold registration is usually voluntary, but not always: buying ads, software or advice from a foreign business that isn’t VAT-registered in Estonia means a limited registration whatever your turnover, and so do some other purchases. Voluntarily, whether that is worth doing depends on who you sell to and what you buy, and it is one of the first things we go through with you. The standard Estonian VAT rate is 24%. We see your turnover through the documents you send us, so send them as they arrive and we will flag the threshold as it comes closer.

How much tax do I pay when I take profit out of the company?

Nothing while it stays in the company: retained and reinvested profit is taxed at 0%. Tax arises on distribution, at 22% of the gross amount distributed — which is the same tax as 28.21% of the net amount that leaves the company, because the law calculates the tax on the net sum using the ratio 22/78. One obligation, two bases. So when you plan a payout or compare quotes, check which base the figure is measured against: budget 22% of the sum you want in hand and you will be short. Anything you owe personally, where you live, comes on top of this.
