In the shadow of the pandemic, cross-border e-commerce has surged as a beacon of growth. Recent data reveals a 28.6% year-on-year growth in China's cross-border e-commerce trade volume for the first half of 2022, marking a tenfold increase over five years. With the recent expansion in November, China now boasts 165 cross-border e-commerce pilot zones. As online transactions soar, the industry grapples with intensified competition and escalating compliance challenges. Major e-commerce platforms are rapidly expanding overseas, independent site operations are gaining traction, and the Southeast Asian e-commerce market is flourishing. Conversely, the surge in Amazon store closures and recurring intellectual property disputes in the US underscore the paramount importance of regulatory compliance.

 

On December 28, 2022, the 2023 Cross-Border E-commerce Compliance New Trends Forum, orchestrated by Shanghai Landing Law Offices and co-hosted by Seller's Home and Payoneer, was triumphantly conducted. Esteemed guests, including Liu Yixing, Director of Shanghai Landing Law Offices, Senior Partners Li Xinli, Feng Haibin, Huang Runsheng, Senior Associate Zhao Tianjiao, and Regional Business Director Bruce from Payoneer, graced the forum with their insights. Professionals, cross-border e-commerce enterprises, and service institutions also engaged online, delving deep into the multifaceted challenges and prospects of cross-border e-commerce compliance for 2023. Regarding the numerous compliance issues in the cross-border e-commerce industry for 2023, participants offered in-depth analyses and forecasts from diverse viewpoints, encompassing industry, technology, and legal perspectives.

 

 

The conference, inaugurated by Li Xinli, Senior Partner from Landing, emphasized the resilience of the cross-border e-commerce sector amidst pandemic-induced industry disruptions. The forum served as a platform to explore and share insights on legal services and industry trends in this evolving landscape.

 

In his keynote, Director Liu Yixing accentuated China's dominant stance in cross-border e-commerce, envisioning a vast untapped potential. However, the intricate interplay of international legalities and geopolitics presents formidable challenges, demanding unparalleled expertise from both the e-commerce and legal sectors, making this forum by Landing profoundly significant.
