The National E-commerce Strategy will provide a roadmap for policymakers to strengthen the enabling business, policy and regulatory environment for e-commerce and the digital economy in Timor-Leste. It identifies priority areas with the potential for economic growth, job creation and increased trade, and propose activities to undertake in the short, medium and long term.

A governance structure is proposed to monitor implementation and impact of the strategy. It will align with relevant national development strategies, policies and programmes, including the Timor-Leste Strategic Development Plan 2011-2030 and the recently endorsed Timor Digital 2032: National Strategic Plan for Digital and ICT Development.
