Summary

The law is being amended in order to update the Estonian postal market and ensure the sustainable provision of the universal postal service, taking into account the interests of both the users and the service provider. In the field of traditional postal services, it is essentially a monopolistic market, while there is active competition in courier services. The changing market and international trends make it necessary to update the organization, financing of the universal postal service and the rules applicable to the entire postal market. requirements. The bill will significantly reduce the administrative burden: the universal postal service provider will be released from the unreasonably burdensome obligation to submit cost reimbursement requests, and other operators will no longer have to apply for an operating license, but will be able to operate on the basis of an economic activity notification. As a result of the changes, the cost efficiency and stability of the universal postal service will be improved, the reporting and authorization procedure and postal services will be simplified become more flexible and accessible to users.
