Xolo Leap lists Starter at €59 per month for your first 12 months or until revenue reaches €4,000, Standard at €99, Pro at €139 and Premium from €259. All prices exclude VAT. Complete accounting, Estonian VAT and TSD reporting, and the Estonian annual report are included. Rush delivery of the annual report costs €200, and late documents cost €200. An e-commerce add-on is €59 per month.
Eesti Firma
Eesti Firma charges €75 per month without a VAT number and €150 with one. The annual report starts from €150, getting a VAT number costs €300 and an EORI number €100. Consultation is €75 per hour and tax office representation €100 per hour. It publishes no document limits, and says exact scope depends on your activity, documents, VAT status and payroll. VAT at 24% may be added.
Facilite
Facilite lists Blue at €99 per month for up to 10 invoices, Silver at €119 for up to 30, Gold at €129 for up to 50 and Black from €399 tailored. All include full bookkeeping, annual filings and a dedicated accountant. The page lists monthly VAT, income tax and social security filings on every plan but does not say whether prices include VAT, so ask before you sign. Setup fees are not stated.
Where OCTIS fits
OCTIS does not keep Estonian books or file Estonian tax. If your Hong Kong or Malaysian company owns an Estonian OÜ, one of these services does the local filing. OCTIS keeps the parent company's books, tax filing and audit coordination, and can consolidate the subsidiary's statements. Switching can take 10–30% off your current bill.
