ARTICLE ANNOTATION

This article examines the legal regulation of electronic commerce relations in Uzbekistan and China from a comparative legal perspective. Using the functional method of comparative law with normative and institutional analysis, it compares how the two systems address electronic contracts, consumer protection, platform liability, personal data and electronic payments. It argues that Uzbekistan has built a solid foundation through the Law on Electronic Commerce (2022) and related legislation, but that platform operator liability, online consumer remedies, algorithmic transparency and the supervision of new payment products still require more detailed regulation. China's E-Commerce Law, Personal Information Protection Law and payment rules offer instructive techniques that must be adapted to Uzbek conditions rather than transplanted mechanically. The article concludes that a balanced model should combine legal certainty, platform accountability, consumer trust and risk-based supervision.
