Hanoi (VNA) – The Law on E-Commerce and the Government’s Decree No. A key objective is to steer platforms, businesses and household enterprises towards the principle of “compliance before selling.” Specifically, intermediary e-commerce platforms must verify sellers’ identities before authorising them to operate. The new law and decree also clarify the responsibilities of e-commerce platforms. Online businesses need to urgently review and standardise all legal entity information, tax identification numbers, product details, warranty policies and all information made publicly available to customers.
