Hello,

Sorry in advance if this is the wrong community to ask in, new here (and if so please direct me to the correct one)

I am looking to register a company in the EU to carry out business activities there. I am not currently a tax resident or citizen of an EU country, although I hold Greek permanent residency. I am a freelance in the creative industries and will be the sole shareholder and paying myself through dividends not a salary and paying taxes in my current country.

Greece is as far as I understand a bureaucratic nightmare. I am looking at Estonia’s ‘e-residency’ program although there doesn’t really seem to he honest opinions of it online as well as Cyprus due to almost no taxes on IP which would benefit me.

Important factors are ease of dealing with bureaucracy, less registration and accounting fees and ability to open a Euro-denominated bank account. Less taxes are also obviously positive but that’s not a main concern.
