The rules and obligations governing the activities of autonomous vehicle operators have been defined in Azerbaijan. According to the law, individuals and legal entities will be issued operator certificates valid for 5 years to conduct autonomous vehicle operator activities. The amendments also introduce into the legislation the concepts of "autonomous vehicle," "operator," and "remote control center" to regulate the legal framework for autonomous transport across the commercial shipping, aviation, railway, metro, tram, and road transport sectors. Furthermore, a legal entity or an individual may operate as an autonomous vehicle operator only after obtaining the required certificate. The amendments also provide for the assessment of the effectiveness of automated driving systems for autonomous vehicles within a regulatory testing environment.
