If you’re registering a company in Estonia—or planning to do so as an e-resident—chances are you’ve heard about “virtual business address” services. But what exactly are they, and why do so many businesses choose them?
In this post, we’ll break down what a virtual business address is, who it’s for, and why it can make running your Estonian company easier, more private, and more professional.
What Is a Virtual Business Address?
A virtual business address is a real, physical address in Estonia that you can use as your company’s official legal address, especially in the Estonian Business Register. It’s not a PO box. Your company receives real mail at that address, which is then scanned and forwarded to you electronically.
This is ideal if:
- You don’t live in Estonia.
- You don’t want your private address shown publicly.
- You want to project a more professional business presence.
Who Needs One?
According to Estonian law, every company must have a legal address in Estonia. If your business address is located abroad, you must appoint a contact person based in Estonia.
A virtual address service (like Capture) often includes both:
- A legal address for registration
- A legal contact person service
Why Not Just Use a Home Address?
There are several reasons:
- Privacy: Your registered address is publicly listed. Do you want your home address visible online?
- Professional image: A business address in central Tallinn looks more credible to partners and clients.
- Mail handling: You won’t be able to receive and process physical mail if you’re abroad. A virtual address ensures nothing is missed.
