Business in Estonia

Start a Company in Estonia

A Smart Gateway to the European Market

Estonia offers a transparent, digital and internationally connected environment for establishing and developing an EU-based company.

Aukons Consult supports international founders throughout the process — from choosing the right structure and preparing the documents to registration, legal administration and the practical organisation of business operations.

Why Estonia?

Estonia combines digital administration, international accessibility and an established European legal framework.

  • Retained Profits

    Corporate income tax is generally charged when profits are distributed, while retained and reinvested profits are generally not taxed at company level.

  • Access to the European Market

    Establish your business within the legal and economic framework of the European Union and develop commercial relationships across European markets.

  • International Ownership

    International founders can establish, own and manage an Estonian company, subject to the legal, regulatory and compliance requirements applicable to their business.

  • Digital Management

    Estonia’s digital business services allow many company-related procedures to be completed online. Founders can manage their business remotely using e-Residency or authorise representatives to assist them.
