ettevõtlusregistrid

The Estonian Business Register, known as ettevõtlusregistrid, is a public database containing information on all companies and entrepreneurs operating in Estonia. It serves as a central repository for legally mandated business information, ensuring transparency and accessibility for various stakeholders. The register is managed by the Estonian Chamber of Commerce and Industry.

Registration in the ettevõtlusregistrid is a mandatory step for any individual or legal entity wishing to conduct business activities in Estonia. The process involves submitting specific documentation detailing the company's name, legal form, registration code, address, and information about its management and ownership structure. This information is publicly available, allowing anyone to verify the legitimacy and details of a registered business.

The primary purpose of the ettevõtlusregistrid is to provide a reliable source of information for economic actors, government authorities, and the general public. It facilitates legal transactions, supports market monitoring, and contributes to the overall business environment by enhancing trust and predictability. The register is continuously updated to reflect any changes in a company's status or information. Access to the register's data is generally free of charge, though certain certified extracts may incur a fee. The system plays a crucial role in Estonia's digital governance and its reputation as a business-friendly nation.
