Don't confuse this with e-Residency — e-Residency is a digital identity for remotely managing an Estonian company and grants no right to actually live in Estonia; the Startup Visa is a genuine residence permit. The Startup Committee reviews applications within 10 business days against four specific criteria, and explicitly excludes traditional, non-scalable businesses (restaurants, consultancies) — this is strictly for tech-driven, globally-scalable ventures.
Processing: Reviewed within 10 business days
