    Estonian company, equity and possible employment

    Hi!

    I've been doing some contract work for an Estonian tech company as a UK contractor as a PSC. They've liked my work and have offered me employment and shares in the business but as an Estonian employee, as they don't want to setup an UK Entity. I'm wondering what this might look like?

    - Should I become an Estonian e-resident?
    - Would the Estonian company take the tax out of my pay? - If not, how would this work and would there be any implications on double taxation?
    - Could they setup an EMI scheme in the UK or what would be the most tax efficient way to handle this?

    My current contract is outside IR35 and I could take shares on in other ways (through my own business, setup an Estonian business to receive them, etc)!

    Any help would be appreciated as not sure the effort involved here...
