Operations of the major ports in Latvia as well as the maritime safety in ports are controlled and regulated by binding rules issued by municipalities.

The study also compares and analyses the differences in legal frameworks in the major Latvian ports, their solution in improving the regulations as well as suggesting a possible way on how the port rulemaking body should be structured.
