Comment

The Convention of 1905 is replaced between the parties by the Convention relating to civil procedure of 1 March 1954. Considering that Estonia is not a party to the 1954 Convention and that the 1954 Convention has not been extended by Denmark to the Faroe Islands, the 1905 Convention remains in force in the relation between Estonia and the Faroe Islands and the other parties.
Insofar as the 1905 Convention has not been replaced between the parties by the 1954 Convention, articles 1 to 7 of both Conventions are replaced in the relation between the parties by the Convention on the service abroad of judicial and extrajudicial documents in civil or commercial matters of 15 November 1965. The 1965 Convention does not apply to the Faroe Islands. The 1965 Convention applies in the relation between Estonia and the other parties, except with Austria, since Austria is not a party to the 1965 Convention.
