Accounting in Estonia

Frequently asked questions
When does the company need VAT registration?
A company must register for VAT within three working days after its taxable turnover in Estonia exceeds €40,000 in a calendar year. It can also register earlier, voluntarily, but the Tax and Customs Board registers a company only if it shows it does business in Estonia. We handle the registration for €99, and the Managed and Extended plans include the monthly VAT returns.
How much does it cost?
€79, €199 or €299 a month, depending on the plan. No VAT is added. The legal address, the contact person and the annual report are included, so an accounting plan replaces a yearly company plan. The minimum term is three months. Other work is priced under Other services.
The company has no activity. Does it still need accounting?
Not monthly accounting. It still has to file an annual report every year. A yearly company plan and the dormant annual report (€99) are enough. When the company starts trading, it can move to an accounting plan.
Can it all be done remotely?
Yes. Signup, identity verification and documents are all online, and a board member gives us permission for the company’s tax matters once. Nobody needs to come to Estonia.
Is an accountant mandatory?
No. The law requires the company to keep accounts, record every transaction and file an annual report, but not to hire an accountant. The accounts, declarations and annual report follow Estonian rules and deadlines, and missed filings lead to fines and, in the end, removal from the register.
Can I switch from my current accountant?
Yes, also during the year. We take over from your current accountant, including the accounts kept so far. The handover is priced under Other services.
