How to liquidate an Estonian company
— Raul Pint, liquidator
Entrepreneurship is a dynamic journey, where not every beginning may lead to a victorious end. Market changes, disagreements between partners, economic difficulties or simply a change in focus can lead to a decision to terminate your business.
In Estonia, establishing a company has been made exceptionally easy, but closing it can turn out to be a legal gallows. The Commercial Code sets rules for the termination of a company, the violation of which can lead to personal financial liability and, for example, damage to reputation.
Classic company liquidation in Estonia: step by step
If you decide to go through the usual voluntary liquidation procedure on your own, you must take into account a long and bureaucratic process, which usually lasts 8 to 12 months.
The process consists of the following mandatory stages:
1. Adoption of the termination decision: The shareholders must formalize a formal termination decision. The decision must be supported by at least 2/3 of the votes represented at the meeting. A liquidator will be appointed at the same meeting.
2. Filing an application to the Commercial Register: The management board or the appointed liquidator files an application in the e-Commercial Register for the dissolution of the company and the entry of the liquidator in the registry card.
3. Publication of a notice in the Official Gazette: The liquidator must officially notify the public and creditors of the termination of the company's activities. Creditors have four months to submit their claims.
4. Preparation of the opening balance sheet and interim report: The accountant prepares the opening balance sheet of the liquidation, which reflects the company's exact financial position.
5. Realization of assets and payment of debts: The liquidator sells the company's assets, collects debts and pays all existing liabilities. Attention! If it turns out that the company's assets are not sufficient to cover its debts, the liquidator is required by law to file a bankruptcy petition with the court.
6. Preparation of the final balance sheet and distribution of assets: After the claims have been satisfied and the mandatory waiting period has passed, the remaining assets are distributed among the shareholders.
7. Application for deletion: As the last step, an application is submitted to the Commercial Register to delete the company from the register.
This journey requires attention, accuracy and knowledge of the law. If you make mistakes, you risk fines or the procedure will drag on for years.
