A quick reference for Estonia-resident investors holding UCITS ETFs — dividend and capital-gains tax, the reduced US withholding rate via tax treaties, allowances, and whether accumulating or distributing is more efficient.
Flat 20% (22% from 2025) on dividends and gains. The Investment Account (investeerimiskonto) defers tax until funds are withdrawn — strong compounding benefit.
