Esindatav

Esindatav is a term used in Estonian law to describe a legal entity that is authorized to act on behalf of another entity, typically an individual or another legal entity. The term is derived from the Estonian words "esindama," meaning "to represent," and "tav," meaning "custom" or "practice." Esindatavs are commonly used in various legal contexts, such as in corporate law, where a company may appoint a director or a board of directors to act on its behalf. The appointment of an esindatav is governed by specific legal provisions and regulations, which outline the rights, duties, and responsibilities of the esindatav, as well as the conditions under which they can act on behalf of the represented entity. The use of esindatavs is an essential aspect of Estonian legal practice, as it allows for the delegation of authority and the efficient functioning of legal entities.
