Annual Reports

At BDO, we have extensive experience in preparing financial statements and would be pleased to help you with qualified advice and assistance, whether in respect of reporting in accordance with the Republic of Estonia financial reporting standard or International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).

At the end of each financial year, an accounting entity is required to prepare an annual report consisting of the financial statements, the management report, the auditor’s report (if an audit is required) and the profit distribution proposal or proposal for covering the loss for the financial year. Annual reports must be filed with the register even if the company had no transactions during the financial year. The approved annual report must be submitted to the Commercial Register within six months after the end of the financial year.
