About this statute

This article says the law governs electronic transactions, electronic messages, computer misuse in transactions, electronic signatures, and related IT applications, but does not apply to certain paper documents that must be signed by the issuer. This article defines key terms used in the law. The provision establishes the Institute of Real Property Valuers in Rwanda, gives it legal personality and autonomy, and says electronic messages cannot be rejected or made unenforceable just because they are electronic. A person who wants to work as a real property valuer in Rwanda must be a member of the Institute. Electronic messages can satisfy a legal writing requirement if the information in them is accessible whenever needed. The Institute’s head office must be in Kigali, and it may be moved elsewhere in Rwanda if necessary. An electronic message can satisfy a legal original-form requirement if it meets the stated conditions.
