Estonian company formation and startup setup

Who this is for
- e-Residents about to register their first OÜ
- Founders comparing Estonia with other EU jurisdictions
- Existing businesses adding an EU entity
- Anyone who registered a company and now needs the rest set up
An Estonian OÜ can be registered online in a matter of hours, and that speed hides a set of choices that matter: the share capital amount and whether to defer payment, the activity codes you declare, the financial year end, the registered address and contact person requirements for non-residents, and whether to register for VAT immediately.
We advise on those choices, help you get the company registered and banked, and then set the accounting up so the first year runs cleanly instead of being reconstructed later.

Frequently asked questions
How much share capital do I need?
The minimum is low and payment can in many cases be deferred, but deferring has consequences for dividend distributions. We explain the trade-off before you decide.
Do I need a contact person in Estonia?
If no board member resides in Estonia, the company must have a contact person and a legal address here. This is a formal requirement, and we will point you to compliant options.
Can you register the company for me?
We guide the process and work alongside formation providers. The registration itself is done with your own digital identity, which keeps you in control of the company.
How soon do accounting obligations start?
From the date of registration. There is no grace period, which is why we recommend setting bookkeeping up at the same time.
