Bank account and declaration of income
Estonian tax system
The Estonian tax system consists of state taxes and local taxes imposed by tax laws. Resident natural persons file their income tax returns once a year for the previous year.
Important to know concerning this step
Newcomers to Estonia must first determine their residency status to fulfill their tax obligations correctly. Estonia applies a single 22% income tax rate. The social tax provides health and pension coverage. Tax returns are generally filed electronically once a year. More detailed information about tax rates and filing is available on eesti.ee and the Estonian Tax and Customs Board’s website.
