What changes
Because Estonia taxes company profit only on distribution rather than annually, a resident company that pays out dividends or other profit distributions must declare and pay income tax (currently 22/78 of the net distribution) via TSD Annex 7 together with form INF 1 (recipients of dividends and equity payments) by the 10th day of the month following the month of payment.
Who is affected
Any Estonia-registered company that distributes dividends or other profit in a given month; companies that retain all profit and never distribute have no filing under this obligation.
Sizes: micro, small, medium, large · Sectors: All sectors
What to do
When paying dividends or another profit distribution, calculate the 22/78 income tax on the distribution, then file TSD Annex 7 together with form INF 1 listing the recipients, and pay the tax due, by the 10th of the month following payment.
