"Filings suggest that Tesla is accelerating its regional expansion following its recent launch in Lithuania, with service centers likely coming before full sales operations. Official entities in Latvia and Estonia Tesla has established two new legal entities, Tesla Latvia SIA and Tesla Estonia OÜ, both owned by Tesla International B.V., as noted in an EV Wire report. Corporate records show the Estonian entity was formed on December 16, 2025, while the Latvian subsidiary was registered earlier, on November 7."
"Both entities list senior Tesla executives on their boards, including regional and finance leadership responsible for new market expansion across Europe. Importantly, the entities are registered under "repair and maintenance of motor vehicles," rather than strictly vehicle sales. This suggests that Tesla service centers will likely be launched in both countries. The move mirrors Tesla's recent Baltic rollout strategy. When Tesla entered Lithuania, it first established a local entity, followed by a pop-up store within weeks and a permanent service center a few months later."
Tesla registered subsidiaries in Latvia and Estonia owned by Tesla International B.V., with the Estonian entity formed on December 16, 2025 and the Latvian on November 7. Both entities list senior Tesla executives on their boards and are registered under "repair and maintenance of motor vehicles," indicating service operations first rather than immediate vehicle sales. The approach mirrors the Lithuania rollout sequence of entity formation, pop-up retail, then a permanent service center. Service and retail operations in Estonia and Latvia are likely to appear in the first half of 2026. Tesla is also pursuing lower-priced Model 3 and Model Y variants and FSD approval to boost European sales after a 2025 decline.
