I would say that depends of the company's legal form. If you have an "AG" or "GmbH" you get double taxed anyway, one time the company and than again your salary. So if you have an Estonian equevilant of a GmbH/AG your company will get taxed by Estonia and your salary by Germany. The Estonian E-Residency Website at least confirms my assumption but in case of Germany I could be very well wrong of course... https://www.e-resident.gov.ee/understanding-cross-border-tax... | ||

You don't get double taxed, you get taxed on your salary and your company gets taxed on whatever profit remains after paying salaries. | ||

I think you misunderstood double taxation . You probably understood it as taxation on corporate and personal level. But in this context it means taxation in two jurisdiction (Estonia,Germany) | ||

> So if you have an Estonian equevilant of a GmbH/AG your company will get taxed by Estonia and your salary by Germany Estonian CIT is 0%. If you pay dividends (which is not required), or if you pay director’s salary (optional if you’re a one-man company without a ton of admin), those will be taxed in Estonia. If you only pay yourself for your actual services – no taxes in Estonia. Germany might tax your Estonian company if they determine the company is a German resident. Check with your accountant.
