Description
Professional Company Formation Through a Notary
While e-Residency allows for digital formation, certain complex business structures or specific banking requirements demand a traditional approach. Our Company formation through a notary service is the premium solution for entrepreneurs who need a physically authenticated registration process in Estonia.
This comprehensive package is designed for international businesses, multi-shareholder entities, or founders who have not yet obtained e-Residency but wish to secure their legal entity immediately.
When is Notary Formation Required?
You should choose this package over the standard e-Residency portal setup if:
- ✅ Complex Ownership: Your new company will be owned by another legal entity (holding company).
- ✅ No e-Residency: You or your partners do not yet have active digital ID cards.
- ✅ Specific Assets: You are making a non-monetary contribution to the share capital (e.g., IP, software, real estate).
- ✅ High Share Capital: You wish to register a share capital significantly higher than the €2,500 minimum immediately.
The Registration Process Explained
We handle the bureaucratic complexity so you can focus on business strategy. Here is how the company formation through a notary works with Dalanta:
- Consultation & KYB: We verify your structure and collect necessary data (passport copies, parent company registry extracts).
- Document Preparation: Our legal team drafts the Articles of Association and the Power of Attorney (POA).
- Notary Appointment: We represent you at the notary in Tallinn. You do not need to travel to Estonia if you provide a remote POA (apostilled).
- State Fee & Registry: We pay the state fee (€265) and submit the application to the Estonian Business Register.
- Finalization: Within 1-5 business days, your company is active. We deliver your Registry Extract and Articles of Association digitally.
What This Package Includes
- ✔ Legal Address (1 Year): Mandatory for all Estonian companies.
- ✔ Contact Person (1 Year): Required for non-resident founders.
- ✔ State Fee Payment: We cover the €265 registry fee.
- ✔ Notary Fees: All standard notary transaction fees included.
- ✔ Legal Translation: Translation of standard documents during the appointment.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to visit Estonia?
No. If you can send us a notarized and apostilled Power of Attorney (POA) from your home country, we can sign everything on your behalf via company formation through a notary.
How long does it take?
Once we receive your original documents, the notary appointment is usually scheduled within 2-3 days. The Business Register typically processes the application in 1-5 business days.
Can a foreign company own the new OÜ?
Yes. This is the primary reason clients choose company formation through a notary. We will need the registry extract of the parent company (apostilled) to prove its existence and legal representation.
