I'm getting ready to do this but haven't figured out a way to open a bank account there without visiting the country. How did you do that? I saw there's a service that will do it for you but it seems like an expensive monthly fee.
- logronoide 9y agoI opened my company with Leapin. Easy and fast. If you don’t need a bank account and you can live with PayPal you don’t need to go there. I needed a bank account and credit card so I traveled to Tallinn and opened a bank account at LHV. You have to sign the documents at the bank office. I think LHV Bank is working on a remote process with an interview using Skype, but it was not available several months ago. Still, I have faced several issues setting up my small SaaS service: Stripe is not available and my Braintree application was rejected because they did not understand why I wanted to create a company in Estonia! It took me two weeks to explain that I was a nice guy and then everything went fine. I also had issues creating a merchant account in Coinbase, so I had to use Bitpay.
- jaggederest 9y agoTo be honest, you should visit the country either way. Estonia is a pretty wonderful place, at least it was when I visited.
