The First Estonian-Polish Chamber of Commerce operated between 1934 and 1939, and its activity was ended by the occupation of Poland and Estonia. On 5 December 2019, as part of the Polish-Estonian business conference in Tallinn with the participation of both embassies, the reactivation of the Chamber was solemnly initiated. Many Estonian companies operating in Poland and interested in the Polish market and Polish companies operating in Estonia signed a letter of intent, committing themselves to work together to rebuild the Chamber.

Among the objectives of the Chamber were the promotion of Polish-Estonian economic relations and assistance in establishing partnerships between Poland and Estonia.
