Karistusseadustiku muutmise ja sellega seonduvalt teiste seaduste muutmise seadus (trahviühiku suurendamine)

Stage avaldatud_riigiteatajasUpdated 16d ago

This Estonian bill, submitted to the Riigikogu (the national parliament), would increase the value of the "fine unit" (trahviühik) in the Penal Code. The fine unit is the base amount used to calculate monetary fines for criminal offences, so raising it generally means higher fines for offences that use this measure. The bill also makes related changes to other laws. This summary is based on the title and metadata only, not the full legislative text, so the new amount and its exact scope are not stated here. The change would apply to people convicted of offences carrying fines under Estonian criminal law, and to courts and authorities that set and enforce those fines. Because the bill also amends other laws, related fine calculations outside the Penal Code may also be affected. The Legal Affairs Committee is handling the bill.
