Organisation of the accounting system
Before starting your commercial activities, it is important to discuss all possible nuances of the upcoming accounting processes and to agree in detail on all subsequent actions, including the format and timing of primary documentation submission. Internal accounting rules and guidelines should also be developed and adopted within the company, including procedures for maintaining accounting registers, rules for fixing and recording business transactions, principles for processing and storing primary documents, procedure for reflecting income and expenses in reporting documentation, accounting procedures for major equipment and taking inventory, and procedures for preparing reports and other circumstances related to the accounting process.
Preparation of opening balance sheet
All businesses should, before entering the active business phase, prepare and draw up an opening balance sheet that reflects the company’s assets, equity capital and possible liabilities at the time immediately preceding the commencement of the business activities. The opening balance sheet is the starting point for organising the accounting process and determining the financial performance of each enterprise.
Obtaining a VAT number in Estonia
The number of the Value Added Tax payer or VAT number is assigned to the entrepreneur on the basis of an application submitted to the Tax and Customs Board. The obligation to register as a VAT payer arises when the VAT taxable turnover of the company exceeds 40,000 euros in one business year. If the taxable turnover has not yet surpassed the previously defined threshold, but the company has directly commenced commercial activities and obtaining a VAT number is a reasonable step, considering the specifics of the business model and the expected business flows of the project, the entrepreneur has the right to register as liable for turnover tax on a voluntary basis.
Obtaining an EORI number
EORI number (Economic Operators Registration and Identification System) is used to identify entrepreneurs when they carry out their customs procedures and is mandatory for businesses involved in import, export or transit traffic. The issuance of EORI numbers is coordinated by the Tax and Customs Board.
FINANCIAL REPORTING
Preparation and submission of annual reports for Estonian companies
Financial statements are a systematised and unified set of data and information about the financial position, financial performance and changes in the financial position of an enterprise. The purpose of filing the financial statements is to provide the government, business partners and the general public with objective and reliable information about a company’s financial performance.
Annual accounting reports – report for the fiscal year
Financial statements must be prepared professionally and comply with generally accepted principles of reliability, consistency, comparability, objectivity, etc. Our specialists will offer you a full range of accounting services, as well as the preparation of annual reports and other financial statements, taking into account all the nuances and peculiarities of the business processes of your company.
Filing of the annual reports
The preparation and filing of accounts for the business year is compulsory for all companies registered in Estonia. The Annual Report is submitted to the Commercial Register within six months of the end of the company’s business year. The annual report must comply with established rules and standards, include the balance sheet, statement of activities (explanatory note), income statement and statement of cash flows.
Zero balance annual report
Lack of economic activity does not relieve a company from its obligation to submit annual report to the state. In case of complete absence of any economic activity during the reporting period, it is necessary to prepare and submit the zero balance annual report.
Drawing up interim financial statements
Interim financial statements are financial statements for a period other than the company’s business year (for a specific month or quarter). Most often, the preparation of interim statement is required in case if this statement must be provided to partners and counterparties when concluding important contracts or applying for loans and leases, and also for internal business processes to record interim statuses or determine the seasonal financial performance of an enterprise.
Submission of statistical reports
Statistics Estonia collects various data on the activities, condition or financial indicators of companies in order to provide the state, the public or authorised organisations with objective and reliable information on the development of the Estonian economy. Research involves businesses providing data and information that will enable a better understanding and evaluation of the social phenomenon in question. When conducting a continuous study, data is collected from all enterprises of the relevant target group. Data are submitted to the Statistics Estonia by completing the relevant questionnaires in the eSTAT electronic environment.
Reviewing and adjusting the financial statements
Our accountants have the necessary competence and experience to monitor the financial status and performance of enterprises, search for and correct errors and inaccuracies, check the calculation methodologies used and the presentation of data in the reports, and reconcile the results with the data previously submitted to the Commercial Register.
TAX REPORTING
Preparation and submission of VAT (KMD) and income tax (TSD) declarations
Tax accounts and its preparation is a set of activities in which standardised declarations containing information on the financial performance of an enterprise for a certain period, as well as information on the calculation and payment of relevant state taxes, are submitted to the tax authorities by a pre-determined deadline.
Submission of reports to the Tax and Customs Department
The priority of the team of our specialists is to simplify the process of collecting and processing data on our client’s business activities using the latest technological solutions and to ensure maximum efficiency in submitting tax accounts to the controlling authorities.
Submission of income tax returns
Companies that pay wages to their employees or make other taxable payments to natural persons, must declare (TSD return) and pay income and social security tax to the state, as well as make contributions to unemployment insurance fund and, if necessary, also make contributions to a mandatory funded pension for their employees. In case if no income tax-deductible payments were made during the accounting period, it is not necessary to submit the TSD return.
Submission of Value Added Tax (VAT) returns
Entrepreneurs who are registered as Value Added Tax (VAT) payers are obliged to submit to the Estonian Tax and Customs Board a summary data (KMD return) of the turnover and imports of their company (including turnover and imports taxed at a zero or reduced rate) and to withhold the VAT payable and credit the funds to the state. VAT report must also be submitted if the company did not carry out any activities during the reporting period (month).
Submission of declarations of turnover within the European Community
If a taxable enterprise (VAT payer) has supplied goods or rendered services during the accounting period (month), both directly and within the framework of trilateral deals, to its conunterparties registered as VAT payers in other EU member states, then in such a case it is necessary to submit a report on the turnover within the EU (VD return) to the Estonian tax authorities, in addition to the VAT return.
Preparation and submission of MOSS, OSS and IOSS returns
A special turnover tax (VAT) procedure for electronic services provided to non-taxable persons in other European Union member states is MOSS (Mini One Stop Shop), which allows the service provider to declare and pay the turnover tax payable in another EU member state through the tax authorities of his own state. This procedure may also be extended to other services provided to non-taxable persons from EU member states whose turnover occurs in the EU member state of the service recipient, to distance selling of goods within the Community and, in some cases, to selling of goods through the OSS (One Stop Shop) online store, and to distance selling of goods imported from non-Community countries, a new special taxation procedure – IOSS (Import One Stop Shop) is introduced.
Reviewing and adjusting the tax returns
Our specialists are qualified and experienced in checking tax returns and identifying possible inaccuracies that affect the calculation of tax payable. If an audit of the tax returns reveals any errors or deficiencies, it is essential to correct the returns filed and to show the correct data on the tax return, and to pay any tax and penalties that have arisen. A prompt amendment of tax declarations will save the company from possible penalties and other troubles.
If a company makes payments to employees who reside and perform work abroad and at the same time are not Estonian tax residents (e. g. freelancers), there is no obligation for the company to declare such payments to the Tax and Customs Board and pay taxes to the Estonian state treasury. Non-resident employees performing work for the company outside Estonia must declare their income to the tax authorities of their country of tax residence.
Not all companies are required to register as VAT payers and file reports related directly or indirectly to it. The exact list of goods and services that constitute VAT taxable turnover, as well as exceptions to the rules, can be found in the Value Added Tax Act.
