Finalising the service contract

Connection process is required in case the property does not have a connection to the public water supply and/or sewerage system or in case the property owner wishes to reconstruct the current connections.

NB! Starting from 01.04.2021, connections to AS Tallinna Vesi’s system can be built by the partners who have been qualified in course of the procurement process made for the new framework agreement (reference number 232105).

The current list of partners included in the framework agreement can be obtained here.

The builder of a specific supply point is selected by AS Tallinna Vesi during a mini-competition between the partners of the framework agreement that is arranged through the Public Procurement Register.

With the Regulation No 16, “Procedure for compensation for the charges for connection to the public water supply and sewerage system”, issued on 17.06.2021 by the Tallinn City Council, available here, the local government decided to partially compensate for the charges for connection to the public water supply and/or sewerage system (hereinafter the PWSS). The person who gets connected to PWSS and is entitled to compensation must submit an application for compensation, including the required annexes, to uvk@tallinnlv.ee.

More detailed information on the application for compensation can be found here.

If the developer wishes to build public water supply and sewerage pipelines and pumping stations in AS Tallinna Vesi’s service area, a development contract will be concluded. More details on the process of concluding a development agreement can be found here.

Due to the continued growth of construction activities, the number of applications for technical specifications and project approvals has increased significantly, due to which the time for their review can be extended. The response will take longer than usual due to increased load. We will respond to all requests as soon as possible.
