a starting point, not a quote - the written offer confirms your price

Who this is for

  • Companies approaching the €40,000 threshold
  • Businesses buying services or goods from other EU countries
  • Companies that want to reclaim input VAT on large purchases
  • e-Residency companies selling into the EU

Estonian VAT registration becomes compulsory once taxable turnover exceeds €40,000 in a calendar year, but plenty of companies must or should register earlier - when acquiring goods from other member states, when receiving services subject to reverse charge, or simply to recover input VAT on significant purchases.

Once registered, the obligation is monthly: the VAT return (KMD) and its annex (KMD INF) are due by the 20th of the following month, and intra-EU supplies also require a VD report. Cross-border transactions are where the errors happen - reverse charge, place-of-supply rules and evidence for zero-rating.

Frequently asked questions

What is the Estonian VAT rate?

The standard rate is 24%, in force since 1 July 2025. Reduced rates of 13% (accommodation) and 9% (books, press, medicines) apply to specific supplies.

When must I register?

What is the filing deadline?

The 20th day of the month following the taxable period, together with the KMD INF annex.

Do I charge VAT to customers in other EU countries?

It depends on whether they are VAT registered, whether you supply goods or services, and where the place of supply is. We map this for your specific sales flows.
