It broke through the threshold of 3 trillion in three years.
In a narrow sense, cross-border e-commerce is basically equivalent to cross-border retail. Market entities belonging to different customs realize the transaction of goods through the Internet, and deliver the goods to consumers through cross-border logistics in the form of express mail and small parcels, that is, B2C mode.
Broadly speaking, cross-border e-commerce is also equivalent to foreign trade e-commerce. Market entities belonging to different customs conduct electronic display, negotiation and transaction in traditional import and export trade by means of e-commerce, and complete the transaction by delivering goods through cross-border logistics. This process may be B2B or B2C.
No matter the previous B2B, B2C or C2C models, China's Haitao experience has been explored for quite a long time.
Before the emergence of cross-border e-commerce platforms, overseas purchasing by flight attendants and international students was very popular. However, due to the limitation of publicity and promotion channels and the legality of purchase, the scale of Haitao has always been small.
From 20 10 to 20 13, cross-border e-commerce platforms began to develop. With C2C purchasing mode as the main mode, the cross-border e-commerce shopping experience sharing community Xiaohongshu was established one after another.
During the policy bonus period from 20 14 to the beginning of 20 15, a large number of e-commerce platforms were established, and large Internet companies such as Tmall, Amazon and Netease entered the cross-border e-commerce industry one after another.
Under the dual influence of the continuous emergence of a large number of cross-border e-commerce platforms and the increasingly hot domestic consumer market, the development of cross-border e-commerce has ushered in a blowout. Statistics show that in 20 14, 20 15 and 20 16, the overall transaction scale of cross-border e-commerce in China was 3.9 trillion yuan, 5. 1 trillion yuan and 6.3 trillion yuan, with growth rates of 34.5%, 30.8% and 23.5 respectively.
Comprehensive demonstration area, with experience, should also be promoted.
In recent years, under the background of the continuous slowdown of China's foreign trade growth, cross-border electronic commerce, as a new way of international trade development, is gradually becoming a new driving force for stabilizing foreign trade growth and promoting economic development under the new normal. While market participants are enthusiastic, relevant departments are keenly aware of the significance of cross-border electronic commerce to China's consumer market, and take the initiative to take measures to promote the development of cross-border electronic commerce.
20 15 15 the state administration of foreign exchange launched a nationwide pilot program for cross-border foreign exchange payment by payment institutions. In April, the executive meeting of the State Council decided that before the end of June, 2065438+2005, some foreign consumer goods with large domestic consumer demand will be piloted to reduce import tariffs, and the scope of goods with reduced tariffs will be gradually expanded.
In addition, in order to promote the healthy development of cross-border electronic commerce in China, on March 7, 20 15, the State Council agreed to establish China (Hangzhou) cross-border electronic commerce Comprehensive Experimental Zone on the basis of the construction of the pilot city of bonded import in cross-border electronic commerce.
201610.6 the State Council executive meeting decided to set up a number of cross-border electronic commerce comprehensive experimental zones in Ningbo, Tianjin, Shanghai, Chongqing, Hefei, Zhengzhou, Guangzhou, Chengdu, Dalian, Qingdao, Shenzhen, Suzhou and other cities 12, providing new support for foreign trade development with new models.
The executive meeting of the State Council pointed out that since the State Council approved the establishment of cross-border electronic commerce Comprehensive Experimental Zone for more than two years, relevant regions have tried their best in terms of technical standards, business processes and supervision modes, forming a series of good experiences and practices, and the import and export scale of the comprehensive experimental zone has increased rapidly.
The next step is to replicate and promote cross-border electronic commerce's mature practices such as online integrated services and offline industrial parks, as well as six major supervision and service systems such as information sharing, financial services, intelligent logistics and risk prevention and control, actively explore new experiences and play a greater role in the formulation of international standards in cross-border electronic commerce.
Second, we should choose some cities with good basic conditions and great development potential to build new comprehensive experimental zones, so as to promote the development of cross-border electronic commerce in a wider scope.
Third, efforts should be made to promote the construction of the "Belt and Road", strive to build an interconnected and intelligent new foreign trade infrastructure, encourage the construction of overseas warehouses covering important countries and key markets, and strengthen the construction of supporting service systems such as logistics networks.
Supervision is not absent, and it cannot be offside.
If the rapid development of cross-border e-commerce is influenced by the expanding consumer market, the supervision of cross-border e-commerce is constantly adjusted with the development of this field. Among them, the list of cross-border electronic commerce's retail imports, commonly known as the "48" New Deal, was released at 8: 00 pm on April 7, 20 16.
On the same day, the Ministry of Finance, the Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Commerce, the General Administration of Customs and other 1 1 departments jointly issued a list of cross-border electronic commerce's retail imports, which included 1 142 goods with a tariff code of 8 digits. Fresh, liquid milk and adult milk powder are excluded, and health products and cosmetics are strictly restricted.
According to statistics, most foods, cosmetics, health care products and maternal and child products will not be imported in a short time due to customs clearance restrictions, and goods that account for more than 95% of the total cross-border e-commerce retail imports will be affected.
Considering the impact of the "48" New Deal on cross-border e-commerce, with the approval of the State Council, China has given cross-border e-commerce retail import related regulatory requirements 1 year transition period since May, 1965. On 2016165438+10/5, a spokesman for the Ministry of Commerce said that the transition period was extended to the end of 20 17 in order to steadily promote the transformation of cross-border electronic commerce's retail import supervision mode.
The executive meeting of the State Council decided to extend the transitional policy of retail import supervision in cross-border electronic commerce for another year until the end of 20 18, and to speed up the improvement of relevant systems.
The meeting requested that regulatory innovation should be strengthened in accordance with the requirements of inclusiveness, prudence and effectiveness, and the docking of online comprehensive service platforms in various comprehensive experimental areas should be promoted to realize information exchange, mutual recognition of supervision and mutual assistance in law enforcement. Promote the establishment of cross-border electronic commerce's transaction risk prevention and consumer rights protection mechanism, and vigorously crack down on counterfeiting and other illegal acts.
According to relevant statistics, the scale of cross-border e-commerce in China will reach 7.5 trillion yuan in 20 17 and 8.8 trillion yuan in 20 18. Under the influence of favorable factors such as policy encouragement and guidance, consumption upgrading, and continuous improvement of infrastructure construction, cross-border e-commerce has maintained a high probability of rapid growth.
