How I understand the rules, establish Kontor in a green city works as follow :
- establish a new trading route leading into a green city AND use an "extra Kontor". If there is no Kontor into the city, place the resource IN the city on the left. If there is Kontor into the city, place the resource OUTSIDE the city, LEFT TO LEFTMOST existing Kontor. Additional "Extra Kontor" may be build left of the first "Extra Kontor", as it is mentioned in the base game (English rules, page 21).
- establishing an ocean trade route between Malmo and Visby AND use the permanent bonus marker. The resource must be placed to the RIGHT of any Kontor already present in that city. If the city is empty, the resource must be placed IN the city at the LEFT.
More, it seems that there is no limit to the number of Kontor in a green city.
Does anybody can confirm this rule ?

During playtesting, this was the clarification I got on this question:
First: green/yellow cities have no predifined spaces.
Second: Using the bonus marker "Extra Kontor" you can place a trader/merchant into a free green/yellow city (which is impossible in normal cities - there you need at least one already placed kontor) or you can place a trader/merchant on the left side of a already placed kontor (normal rule).
Third: If you use the permanent bonus marker you can place a trader/merchant from your supply into any of the three green/yellow cities, on the right side of all already placed kontors if there is already a kontor.

OK. Thank you for this clarification.
Just to be sure : for the second point and in the case of an empty green city, does the resource must be placed on the left into the town, as it is illustrated in the example given in the rules ?
I will test the map right now.

I don't think it makes a difference where in the city you place it since it is the only one in the city at that point.

The rules say "You may place a merchant/trader in a green city" does this mean you can place the trader/merchant in any green city on the board, or just a green city which is adjacent to the route you just claimed?

If I understand your question correctly, it depends on how you are getting into the city.
If you are using an “Extra Kontor” bonus marker you already have, the green city must be adjacent to the route you established.
If you use the permanent bonus marker “Establish a Kontor in a green city,“ you can place a cube (from supply) into any of the green cities.
