The unique nature of cyberspace and its established agreements have had a prominent effect on numerous traditional principles as well as the concepts of international private law; since the involvement of various foreign elements in concluding a contract is natural in the context of e-commerce. One of the most significant issues facing jurisprudence currently with the proliferation of electronic contracts is the issue of jurisdiction and the determination of a competent court for dealing with the disputes arising from electronic contracts. The increasing use of cyberspace for concluding transactions and the growth of electronic contracts maximize the likelihood of increasing disputes arising from these contracts. This clarifies the need for resolving these differences in order to conduct e-commerce at both national and transnational levels. Contract meaning as the same as concluding an agreement, and in terms of its concept, that contract is an agreement and mutual cooperation of two or more wills so as to make the legal effects or create a legal nature. In general sense, it is comprised by definite and indefinite contracts, however in specific sense, it merely includes indefinite contracts. It is concluded in such a way that the declaration of written will is conducted electronically and in an intangible (i.e. virtual) space.
