Wrote this post a while back that might be useful for hackers that want to incorporate in Europe: http://tiagomartins.io/blog/step-by-step-guide-on-incorporating-in-estonia
If you have any questions regarding my experience with e-residency feel free!
Hi Tiago, interesting, what is the reason for you to start one in Estonia instead of just in Portugal where you seem to be living? It looks like it makes things much more complex so I'm missing some sort of upside here. Also you could save on the $500 flight.
Hi Reinder. To be honest it made a lot more sense the time i was actually a nomad switching countries ever 3 months. Now that I am spending more time in Portugal you are absolutely right.
Aha ok, thanks for clarifying.
I would be interested in understanding the complexity of managing an entity from abroad, could you share your experience on this?
Do you actively use your Estonia entity and what is your experience in the tax/legislation knowledge you'll need to manage the entity from abroad? Also did it cause difficulties while living in Portugal with Portuguese tax / legal authorities?

For someone running a small internet business, is there any reason this might be better than Stripe Atlas?
I didn't sign up to Stripe Atlas mainly because of being unaware of how the US tax system works. As I am European (Portuguese), it made more sense to me.
I'm about to incorporate using Leapin. Hopefully, it'll be a bit easier for me as I'm an Estonian citizen already :)
Def!
