Summary

The bill expands the opportunities to learn the Estonian language for those wishing to become Estonian citizens. In the future, the state will offer the opportunity to conclude a language learning contract for people who have lived in Estonia for at least five years on a legal basis, who meet the basic conditions for applying for citizenship and who wish to apply for Estonian citizenship. According to the agreement, the people who have signed the agreement are provided with one-time free Estonian language learning from zero level to independent language user to level B1. The contract is considered fulfilled if the person has submitted an application for acquiring citizenship to the Police and Border Guard Board. In order to participate in Estonian language courses, the person who signed the contract will be paid a language training allowance on the basis of the average salary for 20 calendar days for the number of times he attended language courses on the days of study leave. Language training will be organized by the Internal Defense Academy.
