    Common Questions

    Estonia Incorporation FAQs

    Can a US company own 100% of a Estonia Osaühing (OÜ)?

    Yes. The EU permits 100% foreign ownership of a Estonia Osaühing (OÜ) by a US individual or US corporate parent, with no local shareholder requirement.

    Do I need to be a Estonia resident to be a director?

    No, Estonia does not require directors of a Osaühing (OÜ) to be locally resident, though a registered local office address is mandatory and we provide this as part of formation.

    How long does Estonia company registration take?

    Typical registration timelines run 1–3 business days (via e-Residency), depending on document notarisation, apostille processing, and capital deposit requirements.

    What is the corporate tax rate in Estonia?

    Estonia applies 0% on retained/reinvested profits; 20-22% only on distributed profits. The US-Estonia tax treaty framework and EU parent-subsidiary directive help prevent double taxation on profits repatriated to a US parent.

    Can I use one Estonia entity to trade across the whole EU?

    Yes, once registered in Estonia, the entity can trade, invoice, and register for VAT OSS to sell across all 27 EU member states under the EU single market framework.
