Streamline Company Registration in Estonia with Legitify’s Digital Notarization Solution

Establishing a business in a foreign country can come with its own set of challenges, particularly when it involves navigating complex legal requirements. In Estonia, the process of company registration is facilitated through the e-Business Register, which allows business owners to complete the registration online. While the system offers a streamlined approach, it is only accessible to those who hold an Estonian national ID or an e-Residency card. This creates barriers for international business owners who do not possess these credentials.

In this article, we explore the importance of a notarized Power of Attorney (PoA) to overcome these challenges and how Legitify’s digital notarization solution simplifies the process. With Legitify, international business owners can notarize PoAs from anywhere in the world, without the need for in-person visits, ensuring the process is fast, secure, and fully compliant.

Understanding Estonia's e-Business Register System

Estonia’s e-Business Register is a digital platform that allows business owners to register their businesses, manage corporate filings, and handle administrative tasks from anywhere in the world. However, this system is primarily accessible to those who possess either an Estonian national ID or an e-Residency card. These credentials provide secure access to Estonia’s digital government services, allowing users to complete tasks like company registration remotely.

For business owners who do not possess these credentials, using the e-Business Register directly becomes a challenge. To address this challenge, appointing a trusted representative in Estonia through a Power of Attorney (PoA) becomes a crucial step.

The Role of Power of Attorney for International Business Owners

A Power of Attorney (PoA) allows international business owners to delegate authority to a third party in Estonia, enabling them to manage all aspects of company registration. This trusted representative can handle tasks such as filing documents, making decisions about company formation, and ensuring compliance with Estonian law. However, for the PoA to be legally binding, it must be notarized. Notarization ensures the authenticity of the document and its compliance with legal standards.

Traditionally, notarizing documents requires an in-person visit to a local notary, which can be a challenge for business owners outside of Estonia. This process often results in delays and added expenses, especially for international business transactions. This is where Legitify’s solution steps in.
