Incentives worth checking

These apply only when every eligibility condition is met. Items marked modelled already change this calculation when you choose the matching profile.

PENSION

Supplementary funded pension (III pillar)

Contributions to the III pension pillar can be deducted up to 15% of income taxable in Estonia, at most EUR 6,000 a year.

  • The deduction is claimed in the annual income tax return, so 2026 contributions count in the return filed in 2027.
  • It is outside the EUR 1,200 limit for other deductible expenses.
