Estonian Tax System Haven for Russian Businessmen

An increasing number of Russian businessmen are moving their holding companies to Estonia to take advantage of the country tax system, according to Marko Saag, a fiscal specialist and lawyer at the Glimstedt law firm. Estonia offers three major bonuses that the Russian businessmen appreciate: no immediate taxation on profit the moment it is earned; no taxation on reinvested dividends; and an exemption from tax on interest earned if it's within market value norms, Saag added.
