Earlier link 103062026015 pointed to a future consolidation effective 1 January 2031 and was replaced. Implementing technical regulation and the general passenger-AV framework remain outside this review. Theses were discovery leads only; English translation informative.

Rozsah je obmedzený na automatizované doručovacie roboty. Anglický preklad Riigi Teataja je informatívny; autentické je estónske znenie. Použitá konsolidácia je účinná 1. augusta – 30. septembra 2026. Predchádzajúci odkaz na budúce znenie od roku 2031 bol opravený.
