Statute overview

About this statute

Kapitlet är rubricerat ”Allmänna bestämmelser”. The law’s purpose is to improve maritime safety and navigational knowledge and to prevent environmental harm caused by ship traffic. This section says the law covers pilotage duties, pilot rights and responsibilities, required competence for permit holders, pilotage-company rights and duties, and pilotage-related exams, and it applies in Finnish territorial waters and the leased part of the Saimaa Canal. Certain ships must use a pilot in Finnish pilotage areas, with some exceptions and special rules for VTS fairways. Vissa fartyg kan vara befriade från lotsplikt i finska farleder om angivna bemannings- och certifikatkrav uppfylls; befälhavaren eller agenten måste också meddela VTS-centralen före ankomst om lots inte anlitas.
