Webinar. E-commerce: friend or foe?
Who doesn’t enjoy a bit of online shopping? Yet e-commerce poses many challenges not only in the EU but worldwide. The rise of companies like Shein and Temu, offering inexpensive products or that often fail to meet EU product standards and safety regulations and the staggering speed with which the number of e-commerce imports increases, has made e-commerce reform a highly debated topic. How should the EU address safety concerns? How does e-commerce impact the level playing field for EU companies? What would the removal of de minimis mean in practice?
The webinar will explore the following issues:
- Why is e-commerce a problem: volumes and lack of checks
- The EU UCC Reform response to the e-commerce problem
- Practical challenges and potential consequences of EU’s proposal
- Alternative proposals
