Estonia Introduction
A double
tax treaty allows that tax paid can be offset
in one of two countries against tax payable in
the other, thus avoiding double taxation. Estonia
is a signatory to double tax treaties with several
countries throughout the world. Some forms of
income are exempt from tax or qualify for reduced
rates. These include royalties, dividends and
capital gains.
The
following is a list of countries with which Estonia
has signed a double tax treaty.
