Development of technology allows the sea pilot to operate remotely, from the mainland assisting vessel through areas complex for navigation. A Sea pilot (a marine pilot, a harbor pilot, a port pilot, or simply a pilot) is a mariner who advises a master how to safely navigate the vessel and his role is well known in maritime world. The challenge lies in defining his role when the ship is being monitored via live-streaming cameras. Remote pilotage offers significant cost reduction benefits; however, this mode of pilotage necessitates comprehensive regulations and standardization. It is crucial to delineate the pilot's role, including the commencement and termination of their duties, as well as their legal responsibilities within the regulatory framework. The paper presents tasks for remote pilotage legal regulations, considering that the lack of regulation at the international level could pose significant legal challenges to its implementation.
