After it has been issued, the Tyrolean rafting license does not need to be renewed. It is only valid on the rivers of Tyrol that are designated for commercial rafting. 

All issued "Skipper Patent Raft" are still valid and are recognized by the members of the Tyrolean Rafting Association and the Tyrolean provincial government. These do not need to be rewritten as they are still valid throughout Austria on all commercially used river sections.

The Tyrolean Rafting Association is not responsible for these licenses.  For all issues in this regard (loss, reissue, etc.), please contact the Tyrolean government !
