You can start selling your service(s) without a VAT number, but it's obligatory to register your company as a VAT payer if:
- Your turnover reaches €40 000, from the beginning of a calendar year (an exception applies when selling EXCLUSIVELY outside the EU) OR
- You start providing 'digital' services (software, digital content, etc) to individuals or companies in the European Union without a valid VAT number based on VIES database (meaning that your company has to be registered for the OSS Scheme) OR
- You start selling physical goods OR
- You buy services (e.g. Google, Meta, DigitalOcean, NameCheap, Zoom, etc) outside of Estonia to your company's name OR
- You buy goods annually over €10 000 from the EU to your company's name.
If the conditions mentioned above are not met, applying for VAT-payer status is voluntary.
If you need to register a VAT number for your company, please go to your self-service, choose 'Add-on services' and click 'Purchase' under 'VAT number registration'. We’ll send you information about the steps you need to complete. The VAT number registration fee is €69 + VAT.
