What Eesti Firma does

Eesti Firma OÜ is a licensed Estonian Trust and Company Service Provider (TCSP) headquartered in Tallinn, founded in 2016, that delivers integrated corporate, legal, accounting, and regulatory advisory services to international entrepreneurs and businesses establishing operations in Estonia and across the European Union. The firm's service portfolio spans four pillars: company formation (remote or in-person registration via POA or e-Residency, ready-made shelf companies, virtual office and legal address), ongoing compliance (bookkeeping, tax filings, VAT/payroll, financial reporting, corporate document preparation, notarization, apostille, and liquidation), legal advisory (corporate, regulatory, commercial, and labor law, with court representation), and regulated-activity licensing (CASP under MiCA in Estonia and Lithuania, MiCA white paper preparation, RWA tokenization via Estonian SPVs, and financial institution, gambling, and crowdfunding licenses).

The business operates on a professional services revenue model with individualized quoting. Pricing combines fixed fees for standard services, hourly rates for consultations, and project-based estimates for complex engagements such as crypto licensing and liquidation, with quotes valid for 30 calendar days and exclusive of Estonian VAT (24%). Go-to-market is sales-led and B2B, targeting non-resident founders, e-Residency holders, fintech and blockchain ventures, and Estonian-resident SMBs. Customer acquisition is driven by multilingual content marketing across 24+ languages and SEO-optimized comparative jurisdiction guides. The firm reports cumulative metrics of 5,000+ companies established, 7,000+ financial reports prepared, 1,000+ licensing projects, and 500+ crypto/fintech client consultations.

Eesti Firma is privately held, owner-operated by co-founder and CLO Ilja Nikiforov alongside a small team of lawyers and accountant-tax specialists, with no disclosed external funding or institutional ownership. The technology stack consists of modern accounting software and digital reporting systems; no proprietary technology, AI/ML capability, or platform product is disclosed. Core operations run from a single Tallinn office, with services delivered remotely to a globally distributed client base.
