Businesses Urge Government to Pass E-Commerce Law

The Association of Indonesian Retail Businesses (Asosiasi Pengusaha Retail Indonesia – “Aprindo”) is urging the government to pass a new Law on E-Commerce in the hope that such legislation will ultimately create a level playing field for both online and conventional players. As background, the Draft Bill on E-Commerce is still being deliberated by the House of Representatives.
Currently, e-commerce players are only required to comply with Law No. 11 of 2008 on Electronic Information and Transactions, as amended by Law No. 19 of 2016 (“ITE Law”) and this legal framework is generally perceived to be far from adequate.
Aprindo Chairman, Roy Mandey, recently stressed that although taxation provisions for e-commerce have already been addressed through the introduction of Regulation of the Minister of Finance No. 210/PMK.010/2018 (“Regulation 210/2018”), there are still a number of outstanding areas which remain unregulated, including: 1) Online transactions which are undertaken via social media (through so-called, “olshops”); 2) The use of illegal payment instruments, if transactions are undertaken via Cash-on-Delivery (COD); and 3) Sales of counterfeit products.
