webfact Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 Following the increase in the volume of online retail business, or e-commerce, Thailand’s Court of Justice is planning to set up a new department in the Civil Court, exclusively to handle disputes related to online shopping and to assist consumers cheated by online traders. Secretary-general of the Office of the Judiciary Jeerapat Panthavee said today (Friday) that, under the conceptual plan, members of the public, who believe they have been cheated by online retailers, can lodge a complaint with the department, without charge, through an e-filing system, which is now being developed by the Court of Justice in coordination with relevant agencies. He also said that the Office of the Judiciary has plans to increase the use of digital applications and to use more technological innovations to assist judicial work, including e-signature and ID verification systems.

Xonax Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 Proper consumer protection is what Thailand needs the most. Way too many online sellers are selling products without any kind of warranty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
