- 18 fines
- total fines of €226,669, with most being small and one of €219,210 including confiscation
- 13 cases referred to misdemeanour prosecution
- 3 cases referred to criminal prosecution, including one case that resulted in a 1 year jail term, a 3 year ban on entry to Estonia and a €3400 fine
