Avviare e registrare l’attività
-
Register a company (e.g. OÜ) or a sole proprietor (FIE) online in the e-Business Register Portal (RIK); entries are processed by the Tartu County Court registration department. Signing needs an Estonian ID-card/e-residency card, Smart-ID or Mobile-ID.

No separate rental licence was found. But a 2.5–24 m craft that is rented out for leisure trips (max 12 passengers) is legally a "väikelaev used for paid leisure trips" and must meet the extra safety rules for such craft.
