Eswatini is not a party to the World Trade Organization (WTO) Agreement on Government Procurement (GPA), nor does it have observer status.

The Eswatini Post and Telecommunications Corporation (EPTC) is entirely owned by the government, with no local or foreign firms holding equity shares in the corporation. Sections 3-5 of the Swaziland Post and Telecommunications Corporation Act establish the corporation and its governing structures in accordance with the Public Enterprises (Control and Monitoring) Act (PEA).
According to Section 53 of the Electronic Communications Act, EPTC shall have the exclusive right of establishing, constructing, maintaining and operating the national telecommunications backbone infrastructure within the country.

The Public Enterprises (Control and Monitoring) Act (PEA) has no specific provisions that prohibit the appointment of foreigners as board members or directors in government-owned enterprises. However, there has never been an instance where a foreigner was appointed to be either a chief, director or board member of a government enterprise. It is reported that, when one looks at the architecture of the appointment process for members of the board for government enterprises, it is clear that the intention is not to have foreigners forming part of the boards of these entities. The Board members are appointed by the responsible Minister in consultation with the Standing Committee, which is comprised of Cabinet Ministers (Sections 2 and 6).

Eswatini is not a signatory of the 1996 World Trade Organization (WTO) Information Technology Agreement (ITA) nor the 2015 expansion (ITA II).

The Directive 2000/31/EC (E-Commerce Directive) is the legal basis governing the liability of Internet Services Providers (ISPs) in the EU Member States and includes a conditional safe harbour. Not all Member States have transposed the relevant articles consistently, leading to divergent national case law that could cause legal insecurity on an EU level.
The Information Society Services Act (ISSA) is based on the EU e-Commerce Directive (Directive 2000/31/EC).

Art. 17 of Directive 2019/790 on Copyright in the Digital Single Market (DSM Directive) mandates that providers of content-sharing services seek authorisation from rights holders and implement technical solutions to remove and prevent unauthorised uploads by their users (so-called upload filters), under penalty of losing their liability safe harbour. Further arrangements are envisaged for complaints and dispute resolution mechanisms. Such upload filters are reported to be a significant cost for online platforms. Graduated exemptions are expected to be put in place for new providers active in the EU for less than three years with a turnover under EUR 10 million and with fewer than five million users. The provision is subject to a challenge in the Court of Justice by Poland (C-401/19).
To implement Directive 2019/790, the Parliament has adopted the Act amending the Copyright Act (transposition of copyright directives) 368 SE, therefore making online content-sharing service providers partially liable for copyright violations on their platforms.

Current tensions with Russia have induced the Estonian regulatory authority to block Russian websites for geo-political reasons. It is reported that in February 2022, the Consumer Protection and Technical Regulatory Authority (TTJA) ordered telecommunications operators to restrict the online broadcasting of six pro-Kremlin TV channels, including RTR-Planeta, RTVI, Rossiya 24, REN TV, NTV Mir, and PBK, for twelve months in an effort to limit Russian war propaganda. In March 2022, the TTJA ordered the blocking of another TV channel RBK (RBC TV), seven websites (ntv.ru, ren.tv, 5-tv.ru, 78.ru, 1tv.com, lenta.ru, and tass.ru.), and 12 internet channels, whose “content incites to commit offences towards national security and national defence, to the detriment of the security of society,” according to a TTJA press release.

The Estonian government issued sanctions on the Russian app Yandex. The reason provided is that individuals using the application Yandex must provide access to a considerable amount of personal data, which is processed by the company on servers located in Russia. To prevent the collection and use of Estonian data by the Russian authorities, the government is banning the application, requiring app stores to restrict downloads of the Yandex application.

The EU Directive on Audiovisual Media Services (AVMS) covers traditional broadcasting services as well as audiovisual media services provided on-demand, including via the Internet. Art. 13.1 provides for Member States to secure a minimum 30% share of European works in the catalogues as well as "ensuring prominence" of those works. "Prominence" involves promoting European works by facilitating access to such works using any appropriate means to ensure their prominence. The Directive has been implemented by Member States in different ways, ranging from very extensive and detailed measures to a mere reference to the general obligation to promote European works.
In Estonia, the EU Directive was transposed into domestic law through the amendment of the Media Services Act of February 2022 (RT I, 27.02.2022). According to Art. 24 of the Act, on-demand audiovisual media service providers are required to ensure that at least 30% of the programmes in their catalogue consist of European works. Additionally, these providers must report their compliance with this requirement to the Consumer Protection and Technical Regulatory Authority by 15 February each year. Estonia has not implemented financial contribution obligations to VOD service providers.
