Estonia offers Brexit loophole

TALLINN, Estonia - As Brits brace for the upheaval that Brexit could bring, some are turning to Estonia's e-residency digital ID program to keep doing business across the European Union.

Using its knack for digital innovation to capitalize on the global explosion in e-commerce, the small cyber-savvy Baltic eurozone state became the first country to offer e-residency identification cards to people worldwide in 2014.

Touted as a "transnational government-issued digital identity", e-residency allows users to open a business in the EU and then run it remotely with the ability to declare taxes and sign documents digitally.
