Stupid question that probably depends where you live, but if I register a company in Estonia and do all my work through them, do I have to pay taxes in my country too?

In most setups, the company is a separate tax entity, so corporate taxes are one thing, mostly determined by the country where the company is incorporated, usually paid on profits. Then you move the money from the company to yourself, either as a salary or as a dividend. This is generally taxed by the country that you live in as personal income tax or a dividend tax. This varies greatly. Things can get more complicated, e.g. if you stay in a country for over 60 days, one can argue that the company now has a dependency in that country (because you as the sole owner / employee are living there), so you might be forced to incorporate in that country as well / pay (corporate) taxes there.
