To realize these set targets, the program sets forth tasks of elaborating and developing e-commerce infrastructures, integrated payment card solution, online delivery management system of e-commerce and certification system of digital signature, and setting criteria for exchanging data messages in e-commerce and dispute settlement mechanisms.
Another important task of the program is to develop e-commerce products and solutions, including building an online sales solution to assist small- and medium-sized enterprises in deploying e-commerce applications, building and operating an e-commerce trading floor to spread out images and brands of Vietnamese enterprises.

Under the Decision, solutions for e-commerce applications on mobile devices and digital contents on e-commerce will also be developed during the period and major products and services of Vietnam will soon have their online brands.-
