At AccRes, we value transparency not only in client accounting, but also in the way our own reporting process is organised. That is why we are sharing the current status of client annual reports for the 2025 financial year. As of July 7, 2026, our team had prepared 196 reports: most have already been filed, and the remaining reports are waiting for the final client-side step.
Key figures
The current status covers 196 client annual reports handled by AccRes this season.
- Prepared for filing: 196 reports (100%).
- Filed with the register: 146 reports (74.5%).
- Awaiting client signature: 45 reports (23.0%).
- Awaiting accountant access: 5 reports (2.6%).
- Filed in the register: 74.5%
- Awaiting client signature: 23.0%
- Awaiting accountant access: 2.6%
In other words, all 196 report packages have been prepared. 50 of them are not yet filed only because a signature or access still has to be completed on the client side.
Why some reports are not filed yet
RIK describes the annual report environment as a place where entrepreneurs and authorised persons, including accountants, can work with reports. In practice, that means the accounting team can prepare the report, but filing still depends on the correct rights and client approval.
A report waiting for signature is ready from the accounting side; the client still needs to approve and sign it. A report waiting for access is blocked earlier in the portal: the accountant cannot complete the filing until the client opens the right access.
RIK's help section explains that a board member can assign another person, such as an accountant, to enter annual report data. This is a small administrative step, but without it even a prepared report cannot move forward.
How we organise the process
We do not treat the annual report as a single June task. The result depends on monthly document flow, reconciled balances, access rights and timely communication before the filing deadline.
- We ask clients for accounting documents throughout the year.
- We prepare the annual report package and send it for review.
- We remind clients about signatures and missing access rights.
- We share practical instructions when the e-Business Register step is unclear.
The goal is simple: make annual report filing predictable for clients instead of turning it into a last-week rush.
What clients should do now
For current clients, the next step depends on the status of the report. If you have received a signing request, please review and sign the prepared report. If we have asked for accountant access, please open the access in the e-Business Register.
For new clients planning the next reporting season, the same lesson applies: the earlier documents, balances and portal rights are in order, the calmer the annual report process will be.
- Check whether your report is already filed, waiting for signature, or waiting for access.
- If it is waiting for signature, review and sign the prepared report.
- If it is waiting for access, assign accountant access in the e-Business Register without waiting for another document request.
- If a balance or disclosure looks unclear, ask the question now, while the working file is still fresh.
A prepared report should not sit in the final queue because of a missing signature or access right. Those last steps are small, but they decide whether the report is actually filed.
In July, the usual delay is no longer the accounting file itself. More often it is a signature or portal access. That is why we check these details early and remind clients before they become a bottleneck.
The goal remains the same as every year: make annual report filing simple, timely and clear for clients. When documents, access rights and signatures are handled early, the annual report becomes a normal part of the business year rather than a stressful deadline.
If you are an AccRes client, please complete any pending signature or access request. If you are planning next year's reporting process, start with our accounting services in Estonia before the year-end close becomes urgent.
