General comment

Estonia is a nation that is quick to adopt cutting-edge technologies such as the digital inhabitant system and promote reforms, so if you turn it over, the disadvantage is that the law changes quickly and you can not be alert.

Visa requirements in terms of monetary amount are quite strict, and it is a minus point that it is expensive in terms of tax.

Basically, it is a little difficult to renew your visa.
