With amendments to the Postal Services Law draft, a strong transition is underway from a pre-approval system to post-audit practices, framed by the rapid development of e-commerce and the digital economy. The new regulation aims to legally guarantee data tracking, security, and eco-friendly services in postal operations.

Transition from Pre-Approval to Post-Audit

The Postal Services Law draft is being finalized with a strong shift from preliminary review to subsequent review. The drafting committee and representatives of the Ministry of Science and Technology stated that changing postal management methods is imperative due to the development of e-commerce and the digital economy.

Reduction of Administrative Procedures

During the registration process, state agencies primarily check the completeness of the business's application documents. While businesses are held responsible for fulfilling conditions throughout their operations, registration information is published publicly on an electronic portal.

Data Tracking and Security Principles

The draft law establishes rules for collecting sender information, verifying data, managing risks, and sharing data with authorized institutions. The objective is to prevent the postal network from being misused for transporting prohibited or dangerous goods.

Eco-Friendly Postal Services

In addition to focusing on data management and security, the draft Postal Services Law also incorporates the development of green and sustainable postal services into its legal framework.
