Remote-Gründung für Ansässige und Nichtansässige
An OÜ can be managed digitally with an eligible e-ID/e-Residency; contact-person, address, tax and banking matters remain separate.
Für Ansässige
- A resident generally uses an Estonian e-ID and a local address/management setup.
- Local activity makes substance, tax and banking rationale easier to evidence.
Für Nichtansässige
- A non-resident with e-Residency can sign filings online; management outside Estonia generally requires a licensed contact person.
- e-Residency is not a residence permit, tax residence or a bank-account guarantee.
Wichtig: Das Recht eines Nichtansässigen, Eigentümer des Unternehmens zu sein, berechtigt nicht automatisch dazu, in diesem Land zu leben, zu arbeiten oder das Unternehmen von dort aus zu führen. Einwanderungsstatus, Arbeitserlaubnis, wirtschaftliche Substanz, Ort der tatsächlichen Geschäftsleitung und Steueransässigkeit werden gesondert geprüft.
GRENZEN DES REMOTE-VERFAHRENS
- A bank/EMI independently assesses real activity, geographic nexus and sanctions risk regardless of e-Residency.
Vorbereitung auf KYC/KYB und Bank-Onboarding
VORBEREITUNG / EINHEITLICHE UNTERLAGEN
Wir umgehen keine Compliance-Prüfungen. Wir bereiten im Voraus einheitliche Unterlagen vor, damit die Prüfung mit weniger vermeidbaren Rückfragen und doppelten Uploads ablaufen kann.
Vorprüfung
- We pre-check passports, proof of address, the UBO chart, source of funds/source of wealth and translations before filing with the registrar or bank.
- We reconcile names, addresses, dates, ownership and signatures across forms to reduce repeat KYC/KYB requests and document returns.
- We prepare a clear description of the activity, markets, counterparties, expected turnover and economic link to the selected GEO.
Bankfähige Unterlagen
- Before applying, we match the company profile to a bank or EMI's eligibility criteria instead of sending the same pack to every provider.
- We assemble one bank-ready data room covering corporate documents, UBO/KYC, website, contracts, invoices, source of funds and transaction flow.
- We coordinate responses to compliance questions and help close legitimate requests quickly. Approval and timing always remain with the bank/EMI.
Die Bearbeitungsdauer hängt von der Vollständigkeit der Daten, dem Geschäftsrisiko und der Auslastung des Anbieters ab. CrystalCore kann weder ein Konto noch eine Entscheidungsfrist oder die Genehmigung durch eine bestimmte Bank bzw. ein bestimmtes EMI garantieren.
Für wen geeignet
- SaaS, software, consulting and international digital services.
- Distributed teams that benefit from electronic administration of an EU company.
- Projects prepared for Estonian accounting and to evidence the place of effective management.
Wichtigste Gesellschaftsformen
- Osaühing (OÜ), the most common private limited company for e-residents.
- Aktsiaselts (AS), a public limited company with higher capital and more formal governance.
- Täisühing (TÜ) and usaldusühing (UÜ), general and limited partnerships with different allocations of partner liability.
- A tulundusühistu, a commercial association for members carrying on economic activity together.
- A branch, the registered Estonian establishment of a foreign company rather than a separate legal person.
Gesellschafter, Geschäftsführung und Adresse
- At least one shareholder and management-board member; fully online registration requires signatories to use a supported Estonian digital ID.
- Minimum OÜ share capital may be €0.01 per shareholder; below €2,500, shareholders retain the statutory potential liability for the unpaid difference.
- A legal address is required. If the board is outside Estonia and a foreign address is used, a licensed Estonian contact person must be appointed.
- A principal EMTAK activity and UBOs are declared; certain activities require a licence/notice.
Dokumente und KYC
- A passport or other acceptable ID for every founder, director and ultimate beneficial owner (UBO).
- Proof of residential address, usually issued within the previous three months; the reviewing party sets the exact validity period.
- A transparent ownership chart through to natural persons and, for a corporate founder, its registry documents and authorised resolutions.
- A description of the product, markets, counterparties, expected turnover, source of funds and source of wealth, supported by evidence.
- Digital IDs/e-Residency for shareholders and board, name, EMTAK, financial year and articles.
- Legal-address/contact-person agreement and appointment term where a contact person is mandatory.
- Share-capital allocation, representation rights, UBOs and contact details for the e-Business Register.
Gründungsablauf
- Review OÜ suitability, team tax residence, VAT and licensing.
- Obtain digital IDs, select a licensed contact person/address and prepare registry data.
- All signatories execute the application, capital is confirmed and the filing is sent to the e-Business Register.
- Set up accounting, e-MTA, VAT where required and bank/EMI onboarding.
Voraussichtlicher Zeitrahmen
Mit gültigen digitalen Ausweisen dauert die Gründung häufig 1–3 Werktage. Der Erhalt der e-Residency, die Bestellung einer Kontaktperson, zusätzliche Registerprüfungen, die USt-Registrierung und die Kontoeröffnung erfolgen gesondert.
Steuerübersicht
- An Estonian company generally pays corporate income tax upon profit distribution rather than earning; at the review date the calculation is 22/78 of the net distribution.
- VAT, payroll/social tax and taxes in another country depend on turnover, employees, permanent establishment and management location.
- e-Residency does not change the owner's personal tax residence or guarantee that the company is taxable only in Estonia.
Allgemeiner Überblick, keine individuelle Steuer- oder Rechtsberatung. Die Vorschriften werden vor der Einreichung erneut geprüft.
Bank- und Zahlungs-Onboarding
- An EEA bank/EMI reviews OÜ registry data, UBOs/board, source of funds, contracts, website and links to supported markets.
- e-Residency does not provide an automatic bank account; each provider applies its own country and industry restrictions.
Jährliche Pflichten
- An annual report is mandatory for every OÜ, including newly formed and dormant companies.
- Ongoing accounting and applicable TSD/VAT/payroll filings.
- Renewal of the contact person, current address/board/UBO data and monitoring of official e-notices.
Einschränkungen und Risiken
- An expired contact-person appointment or overdue annual report can lead to fines and registry deletion proceedings.
- Management from another country may create tax residence/PE and local payroll obligations there.
- A digital company without evidenced activity and contracts often faces enhanced bank/EMI review.
Umfang der Unterstützung
- OÜ suitability review and coordination of a licensed contact person/legal address.
- Preparation of the registry application, ownership/board data and delivery of the corporate file.
- Accounting/VAT hand-off and bank/EMI KYB; e-Residency, tax outcomes and account approval are not guaranteed.
