There are several ways to register a company in Estonia::
Electronic registration on the Estonian commercial register portal
The electronic incorporation procedure provides the most efficient and convenient way to establish a company in Estonia. For foreigners (non-residents) who want to establish a business in Estonia, it is recommended to apply for E-residency. This status allows for secure access to a variety of electronic services provided by the Estonian state.
It is possible to register and open a business in Estonia through the electronic commercial register portal only if all parties related to the company (board members, founders, council members, etc.) can sign documents with an electronic signature.
The portal of the electronic commercial register offers the function of registering various forms of ownership (LLC, general and limited partnership, sole proprietorship). However, it is not possible to register a commercial partnership and a joint-stock company in Estonia electronically.
When registering a company in Estonia, you need to enter the data of the founders and the company, choose a business name, draw up a charter based on a standard model, pay the state fee and the authorized capital (if necessary).
Company registration in Estonia with the help of a notary is required in the following cases:
Before registering a company in Estonia, a notary submits the following documents to the Commercial Register: a power of attorney (in case of remote company registration), a memorandum of association, articles of association, an application for registration, contacts of the founders, a bank certificate of deposit of the authorized capital, and a receipt of payment of the state duty. The period for registering a company in Estonia through a notary is 2-5 business days. Company registration in Estonia takes only a few business days and we know how to speed up all the processes.
