Abstract

The development of digital technology has brought significant changes in the practice of commercial law, particularly in the implementation of trade agreements, which are now often conducted electronically. Digital trade agreements provide convenience and efficiency for business actors, but on the other hand, they also give rise to various legal issues, such as the weak bargaining position of certain business actors, unclear clauses in electronic agreements, and increased potential for disputes due to default and data misuse. This study aims to analyze the forms of legal protection for business actors in trade agreements in the digital era and assess the effectiveness of applicable laws and regulations in providing legal certainty. The research method used is normative legal research with a statutory regulatory approach, a conceptual approach, and a case approach. The results show that regulations related to trade law and electronic transactions have essentially provided a basis for legal protection for business actors, but there are still obstacles in their implementation, supervision, and enforcement. Therefore, regulatory harmonization, strengthening legal protection mechanisms, and increasing legal literacy for business actors are needed to create a fair, safe, and sustainable digital trade climate.
