Self-employment income is classed as Class B income and is declared on a cash accounting basis. In spring you don't need to forget about your income declaration. Declaring individual income to the State Tax Inspectorate (VMI) is an important and compulsory process for every Wolt courier-partner running an individual activity 👌 This can be done electronically via the "My VMI" website, where the declaration process is simplified: most of the data is already pre-populated according to the VMI's existing data, and it is up to the courier-partner to check the data and, if necessary, complete it.

Will I be registered in the Estonian Tax and Customs Board's registry?

All courier partners that have a natural person contract, will be registered in EMTA (Eesti Maksu ja Tolliamet) with a contract under the Law of Obligations (võlaõiguslik leping). NB! Registration in EMTA prevents you from getting or continuing your unemployed status in Töötukassa!

Changing your contract type from natural person to company leads to your record in EMTA being removed. The same happens in the case of termination of your natural person contract.

If you want to delete your record from EMTA, please write to Operations team through Wolt Partner app. Please note that it will only be possible in case you want to terminate the contract or change the contract type to a company.

This registration will be made after we approve the contract.
