Are you considering moving to Estonia? In this post we will discuss the options to get a residence permit in the country as both EU and non- EU citizens, for the purpose of work, business, study. We will also list the advantages and disadvantages about living in Estonia.
00:48 Estonia Overview
Estonia is a country in Northeastern Europe, and part of the Baltic States together with Latvia and Lithuania. The country is a full European Union member, a member of the Schengen area, and currently uses the Euro common currency. The economy of Estonia is pretty stable, and the country has experience huge economic growth since it got independent after the collapse of the Soviet Union in the 1990's.
Below, we will analyze the options if you want to move to Estonia, temporarily or permanently.
01:17 Estonia Residence Permit for EU Citizens
If you are an EU citizen and you want to live in Estonia for more than 3 months, you need to register your stay. The process is pretty straightforward and you can do everything after you are already in Estonia. You will need to either own real estate, have a rental contract, or the consent of a property owner in Estonia to live and register your address there.
Once registered, you can go on and start your activities, whatever they might be: work, study, retirement, non-economic activities broadly with the same rights as Estonian citizens.
01:58 Estonia Residence Permit for Non EU Citizens
If you are not an EU citizen your options to live in Estonia are considerably reduced. However, there is still a number of options you can explore if you want to live in Estonia and you are not an EU citizen.
One of the good things about Estonia is that if you are legally in the country on a visa, or if you center Estonia visa free, you can apply for your residence permit directly in the Estonian Police while already in the country. In many cases however, it will be more convenient to apply from abroad at an Estonian embassy due to the time and document constraints.
02:41 Residence Permit for Business
In my opinion, the most attractive residence permit currently available in Estonia is the one for business owners and self-employed persons. The financial requirements are reasonable.
If you are an shareholder of a company the capital invested must be of 65000 thousands euros. However, if you are self-employed, the capital investment requirement is just of 16000 euros, which I consider pretty reasonable.
03:19 Digital Nomad Visa
Estonia, as a pioneer in many aspects of its government, has recently launched a digital nomad visa. This visa is ideal if you want to live in Estonia and work remotely for your own company, or providing services for companies abroad.
The main requirement when it comes to the digital nomad visa is showing evidence that you already have a steady income as a remote worker. The minimum income threshold you need to be eligible for this type of stay in Estonia is EUR 3504 per month during the 6 months previous to your application. The downside of this type of visa is that is issued for up to one year. You can apply through an Estonian embassy abroad or directly in Estonia if you are legally in the country.
