Two errands, one appointment ✅

Getting your Estonian ID code (isikukood) and registering your address of residence are two of the first things you'll need sorted when you move to Estonia. And yes, they can be a little confusing to figure out alone.

That's why we offer free consultations that cover both at once:

🪪 Personal ID code: your personal identification number in Estonia, needed for work and study
🏠 Address registration: getting your place of residence into the Estonian Population Register, which unlocks local services in Tallinn and keeps your info up to date with the authorities

"I came here to study. I stayed for the trams that run on time, the saunas, the digitisation, the autumn colours, the baked potatoes, and the friends I eventually found." 🇪🇪

If you've relocated to Estonia, you probably know that feeling when the quiet culture stops feeling strange, when a colleague's sauna invite catches you off guard (in the best way), when you finally get why seven-year-olds ride the tram alone here.

🍓 Berry excited for foraging season?

Estonia is one of the best places for foraging, with over half of the country covered in forests. 🌲🌳

🫐 It's the perfect season to pick blueberries, lingonberries, cloudberries, and even the first mushrooms.

Just remember: not everything growing in the forest is edible! Make sure you know exactly what you're picking before filling your basket. Better yet, grab an Estonian friend and learn from a local. 😉

Stay safe and make the most of your forest adventure! 🍄

⚽ Football is always better together.

Whether you're cheering for your home country or just there for the atmosphere, the World Cup is a great excuse to meet new people in Estonia. After all, football rivalries stay on the pitch – watching the game together is one of the easiest ways to bond with locals. 🙌

Looking for a place to watch? In Tallinn, you can catch the matches at Patarei Sea Fortress and in the Telliskivi area. From the semi-finals onwards, there will also be public screenings at Freedom Square (Vabaduse väljak). ⚽
Not in Tallinn? No worries! You'll find plenty of sports bars, restaurants, and outdoor screenings all across Estonia showing the matches.

Let the best team win! 🏆 In the meantime, enjoy the football and the great company.
