Dear ladies and gentlemen,

my name is Felix Clos and I am working for the Technical Service TÜV
Rheinland in Germany.

We are reaching out in finding a contact person, who can discuss with us
about Testing permits for automated/autonomous vehicles in Estonia.

We want to offer Estland as a testing country to our customers.

At the moment, we are conducting our projects based on the German National
Law:
Kraftfahrt-Bundesamt - Testing approval
<https://www.kba.de/EN/Themen_en/Typgenehmigung_en/Autonomes_automatisiert
es_Fahren_en/Erprobungsgenehmigung_en/erprobungsgenehmigung_node_en.html>

In best case, there is a project to cover requirements from both countries
and make it available and easy for customers to test in both countries.

Thank you very much!

Kind regards

Felix Clos
