Editor's Notes
- The EBRA is formed in 2019 as a result of the merger between the European Commerce Registers’ Forum (ECRF) and the European Business Register (EBR). The Conference itself, previously named after the ECRF, will be held for the 22nd time and provides a chance for business registries to jointly explore common issues, and exchange ideas, knowledge and expertise.
- First conference of the European Business Registry Association (EBRA). Hosted by Ministry of Justice and Centre of Registers and Information Systems Digital progress is transforming not only our registries, but our societies and economies as well, challenging the effectiveness of policies developed earlier. It is our duty to face these challenges to meet the needs and expectations of citizens and businesses.
- The Capital of Estonia is Tallinn. Our currency is Euro, we are a member state of the EU, NATO and the Schengen Area.
- Estonia is one of the cleanest countries in the world and our untouched nature is accessible to all. Forests cover over half of Estonian territory. More than 40% of them are certified as organic collection areas. According to World Health Organization Estonia holds the 4th place in urban air quality in the world.
- We’re the startup nation of Europe. Most of our state services are available online, which means there’s very little bureaucracy. You can pay taxes or register a company online. Sign documents digitally or check your health records. Through e-Residency program we offer business services also to people outside of Estonia.

Our efforts can be greatly facilitated by collaboration, interoperable solutions and sharing good practices.

The architecture of the Hangar is remarkable, featuring the world’s first columnless thin-shell concrete domes of such volume. The building was used for seaplanes until the Second World War. The Seaplane Harbour accommodates one of Europe’s grandest maritime museums. You are invited to see the authentic submarine Lembit from the 1930s, a Short 184 seaplane, mines, cannons and many other life-sized exhibits.

Due to its exceptionally intact 13th century city plan, the Old Town was inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1997, joining the ranks of the world’s most recognised landmarks. Here you'll find original cobblestone streets dotted with medieval churches and grandiose merchant houses, barns and warehouses many of which date back to the Middle Ages.
