How can you ask a tax consultant?

Three ways, by how big the question is and whether you are with us already. Every answer comes in writing.

Written consultation with an accountant

An accountant answers your question in writing — taxes, setting up, a transaction. Pay, tell us the question and where to send the answer: email, Telegram or WhatsApp. It comes within 2 working days.

  1. Add it to the cart and pay
  2. Tell us your question, and where to send the answer
  3. The accountant answers in writing within 2 working days

Prices are in euro, before VAT. Whether VAT is added depends on our VAT status and where your company is established — your quote shows it before you sign.

A free written introduction

Estonia as a tax home for your company, and answers to one to three general questions — information, not advice on your case. Ask for the free introduction.

Questions every day, in your plan

On a bookkeeping plan, everyday questions to your accountant are included: a first salary, a dividend, when to register for VAT.

Why is there no Estonian VAT on an invoice to an EU business?

Because selling a service and selling goods to a business abroad follow two different rules — and neither is “zero tax”. Here is where your company sells, and what each direction asks of the invoice. The reverse charge, step by step, is on the VAT registration page.

Your Estonian OÜ

  • A business in another EU country

    Services

    Reverse charge

    Most services between businesses are taxed where the customer is established. Your invoice carries no Estonian VAT, says “reverse charge” and shows both VAT numbers; your customer accounts for the VAT at home.

  • A business in another EU country

    Goods

    0% intra-EU supply

    Registered for VAT and shipping goods to a VAT-registered business abroad? The invoice is at 0%, with the customer’s VAT number, and the goods must leave Estonia. Each sale goes on the VD report by the 20th.

  • Consumers in other EU countries

    Goods shipped and digital services

    OSS past €10,000

    Once such sales across the EU pass €10,000 this year or last, all together, the customer’s country’s VAT applies — and OSS lets you pay it from Estonia.

  • Getting paid

    In euros, across the EU

    SEPA

    A payer may not insist that your account be in their country, and in the euro area instant transfers cost no more than regular ones. Each bank still runs its own checks.

Where the rules come from: VAT Directive, services · VAT Directive, goods · EMTA, the invoice note · SEPA Regulation

What can you ask our tax consultants?

Anything about your Estonian company’s taxes. The questions a calculator answers first link to it.

What does a written consultation include?

A reply you can act on and keep, with the rule behind it.

In every answer

  • A plain answer, in euros

    What to do, when, and what each option costs — not jargon. Where two paths are close, you see them side by side.

  • The rule behind it

    Which law or EMTA rule applies, with a link to it, so you can check it yourself.

  • What to watch next

    A threshold getting close, a deadline you didn’t know about, an option you hadn’t considered.

  • Carried into your books

    On a plan, what we advise goes into your bookkeeping and filings — not only into an email.

Outside it — said up front

  • Your personal taxes at home

    We advise on your Estonian company. What you owe personally in the country where you are tax resident needs an adviser there — except, for a Ukrainian tax resident, the CFC rules and the owner’s reporting in Ukraine: that is a written consultation (below).

  • Legal advice

    Contracts, disputes and company law belong with a lawyer. We tell you what a decision means for your tax and your books.

  • The tax office’s decision

    We explain the rules and how they apply to you; where a case is unclear, we say so. The final treatment is the tax authority’s.

  • Bigger projects

    A structure across several countries or a full review of your records is its own piece of work, quoted before we start.

How does a written consultation work?

Three steps, and the answer stays with you in writing.

  1. Pay, and tell us the question

    What you are deciding, and where to send the answer: email, Telegram or WhatsApp.

    You

  2. We read your case

    If one fact is missing, we ask for it in one message, not ten.

  3. You get the answer in writing

    Within 2 working days

    Plain words, the figures in euros and the rule behind them.

Common questions

Is the first question free?

The free written introduction is: Estonia as a tax home for your company and answers to one to three general questions. A question about your own case is a written consultation at €80. On a bookkeeping plan, everyday questions are included.

How much tax do I pay when I take profit out?

Nothing while it stays in the company. When you distribute it, the company pays 22% of the gross amount — the same as 28.21% of the net sum you receive. So budget 22% of what you want in hand and you’ll come up short. Any personal tax where you live comes on top.

Salary, board fee or dividend — which should I choose?

It depends on the amounts and on where you live. Salary and board fees are payroll, declared monthly with the taxes on pay; a dividend is taxed at company level when it’s paid out. We work out each option in euros before you decide.

Does e-Residency make me an Estonian tax resident?

No. e-Residency is a digital identity, not a tax status: your personal tax residency stays where it was. Your company is different — founded under Estonian law, it’s resident in Estonia wherever you live. Your own country may take its own view, so that’s worth checking. The e-Residency and tax residency guide explains where you pay personal income tax.

Do you advise on taxes in the country where I live?

No, with one exception: for a Ukrainian tax resident, the CFC rules and the owner’s reporting in Ukraine, in a written consultation. Otherwise we advise on your Estonian company; what you owe personally at home needs an adviser there — we tell you what to ask them, and explain the company side.
