From legal issues to technological complexities, problems that are hindering to forward march of the e-commerce initiatives are large in numbers. To cope up with the pace of today’s business trends it is very much necessary to address those problems as soon as possible. Otherwise alongside with the new business opportunities that might have stemmed from the usage of the technology, the growth of traditional business activities will fall behind than that of the rest of the world. The problems Miss management: In this digital age technology based services means nonstop service delivery round the clock. But the service providers whose services are necessary to run an ecommerce outlet successfully fail to comply with the requirement of nonstop service delivery. This instability causes customers to think that online based services are not yet reliable. Sudden failure of internet service and inexistence of any backup connection in a shop means customers will not be able pay using their card. Again sudden POS terminal failure and the inexistence of replacing device will also create the same problem. Such mismanagement hinders the growing confidence on ecommerce.

...horizon for trade and commerce, namely electronic commerce (e-commerce). E-commerce entails the use of the Internet in the marketing, identification, payment and delivery of goods and services. This paper highlights the status, statutes, potential and constraints to e-commerce development in Bangladesh. Both the statutory laws as well as the challenges in implementing them are discussed. Major legal, regulatory and institutional constraints to e-commerce are identified. The paper also lists specific policy changes aimed at bringing improvements to the legal and regulatory environment affecting e-commerce. Dimensions of E-Commerce The three dimensions of e-commerce are Business-to-Consumers (B2C), Business-to Business (B2B) and Business-to-Government (B2G). B2C e-commerce is unlikely to be of much use in the near future in Bangladesh because of low per capita income, a weak infrastructural and legal environment, lack of trust between business and consumers. B2C for cross border trade is also limited by the factors suggested for the domestic front. In addition, non-availability of international credit cards, foreign currency remittance restrictions, delays and informal payments at customs clearance even for small value and quantity items will discourage B2C. The B2B application already exists in the export sector of Bangladesh, especially in the Ready Made Garments (RMG) industry. RMG has the lion’s share of the export earnings in Bangladesh. The RMG sector has...
