摘要：Jordan has rapid development of its virtual and real business environments; the country is improving the framework necessary to support the growth of its e-business activities. The increasing use of Internet and the potential of e-commerce give rise to important policy issues relating to national economic policy and rules of international trade. This article explores the general situation of e-marketplace in Jordan. Over the time, the market has been affected more by regulation than by any economic, social or technological change. The necessary regulations to sustain e-business activities in Jordan started almost with establishing the Electronic Transaction Law in 2001 which covered the electronic records, electronic signature, information letter, transferable electronic deed, electronic money transfer, authentication certificate, and penalties. One of the nations in the Arabian countries which has passed legislation (Electronic Transaction Act 85 of 2001) in terms of regulating e-business is Jordan, which was recently revised with the Electronic Transactions Law No.15 of the year 2015. Obviously, this set of laws requires further steps to deal with the electronic commerce that is governed by other laws and cover all e-business aspects. Likewise, more attention should be taken for legal, financial and market access issues that related to the e-marketplace and improve upon them.
