Guide to doing business and investing in Estonia

PricewaterhouseCoopers welcomes the opportunity through this Guide to provide relevant information for doing business and investing in Estonia.

 Estonia is a small country located at the heart of the Baltic Sea Region - Europe's fast growing market of more than 90 million people. Attractive location between East and West, an excellent business environment, stable government and liberal economic policy, moderate costs and the ease of doing business have already attracted numerous international companies to Estonia. Estonia was ranked 18th out of 181 countries in the Ease of Doing Business index by The World Bank Group.

This Guide has been prepared for the assistance of those interested in doing business in Estonia. It does not cover exhaustively the subjects it treats, but is intended to answer some of the important, broad questions that may arise. When specific problems occur in practice, it will often be necessary to refer to the laws, regulations and decisions of the country and to obtain appropriate accounting and legal advice. The material contained in this Guide reflects the situation as of May 2009.
