E-commerce websites that violate regulations may be shut down under the law and have their domain names revoked.

In addition, there should be close co-ordination between ministries, departments and agencies in handling and solving e-commerce related issues.

The department sanctioned 47 cases for administrative violations last year, issuing total fines of VND521 million (US$22,360).
