Dear Sir/Madam,
Short answer is yes, CAA’s approval is needed for commercial operations. Here’s an exerpt from the
Aviation Act where you can find what documentation has to be submitted:
§ 46. Operation of non-scheduled air services to and from non-EU states
(1) Non-scheduled air services to the territory, in the territory or from the territory of the Republic of
Estonia operated by an air operator of a non-EU state must take place in compliance with international
agreements or with the approval of the Civil Aviation Administration.
(2) An air operator of a non-EU state who applies for approval for the commencement of non-scheduled
air services to the territory, in the territory or from the territory of the Republic of Estonia must submit
the following documents to the Civil Aviation Administration:
1) a valid air operator certificate;
2) a valid operating licence if it is required by the relevant non-EU state;
3) proof of holding a liability insurance contract;
4) a valid noise certificate;
5) proof of carrying of ACAS II on board of the aircraft in compliance with subsection 101 (4) of this Act;
6) a valid airworthiness certificate.
7) a valid airworthiness review certificate of an aircraft if it is required by the corresponding non-EU

8) the aviation security programme of the air carrier.
(3) An air operator of a non-EU state must certify to the Civil Aviation Administration in writing that it

the Council establishing common rules on compensation and assistance to passengers in the event of
denied boarding and of cancellation or long delay of flights, and repealing Regulation (EEC) No 295/91.
(4) The Civil Aviation Administration decides the granting of the approval within ten working days
following the submission of an application and the documents specified in subsection (2) of this section.
(5) The Civil Aviation Administration will refuse to grant the approval if:
1) the applicant for the approval fails to submit all the documents specified in subsection (2) of this
section;
2) the applicant for the approval has submitted inaccurate information upon application for the

3) the Civil Aviation Administration is not convinced that the air operator is able to ensure safe flight
