Pilotage authority

The Finnish Transport Safety Agency (Trafi) monitors the observance of the Pilotage Act and any provisions issued under it.

We are also responsible for any pilotage duties which under the Pilotage Act (940/2003) or the Act on transforming the State Pilotage Enterprise into a Limited Liability Company (1008/2010) have not been assigned to FinnPilot Pilotage Ltd.

Thus we grant

• pilot licences and pilotage exemption certificates
• exemptions from compulsory pilotage
• exemptions from the obligation to provide pilotage services and
• deep-sea pilot's licences.

Pilotage examinations and deep sea pilot examinations are also arranged by Trafi.
