Vedurijuhina võib töötada ja raudteeveeremit juhtida isik, kellel on: 1) Eesti või mõne teise liikmesriigi väljaantud kehtiv vedurijuhiluba (edaspidi vedurijuhiluba), mis tõendab, et vedurijuht vastab terviseseisundile, haridusele ja kutseoskustele kehtestatud nõuetele; 2) Eestis tegutseva raudtee-ettevõtja väljaantud sertifikaat (edaspidi sertifikaat), mis näitab, millisel infrastruktuuriosal on sertifikaadi omajal lubatud sõita ja millist raudteeveeremit on tal lubatud juhtida.
Vedurijuhil peavad raudteeveeremi juhtimisel olema kaasas vedurijuhiluba ja sertifikaat. Kui vedurijuhil on kaasas isikut tõendav dokument, ei ole Eestis väljastatud vedurijuhiloa ja sertifikaadi kaasaskandmine kohustuslik.
