The reform aims to facilitate E-commerce in Georgia by developing a legal and regulatory framework and the necessary technical infrastructure. It consists of many different aspects, incorporating the activities of implementing government agencies, other public sector stakeholders, and the private sector. These facets include gaps in the legislative and regulatory framework, as well as various private sector inefficiencies. Notably, E-commerce platforms currently have low consumer trust, which therefore results in unutilized potential within the sector. |

Stakeholder Survey Methodology
Stakeholder surveys assess reform progress across four dimensions:
- reform content and adequacy;
