One of the most striking changes with the new regulation will be in the sale of fake products. Within the scope of securing the rights of the sellers, the Ministry of Commerce will prevent the sale of counterfeit products and illegal content there.
From now on, sellers will not be forced to operate on only one e-commerce site. Apart from this, it cannot be forced to buy goods or services from certain people. Payments to vendors will now be made in less time. Unfair clauses shall not be included in the contracts between e-commerce companies and sellers, and unilateral changes shall not be made. Finally, let us state that sellers will have the opportunity to transfer their data to other sites whenever they wish.
