Recently, cross-border e-commerce in ShanghaiRelevant leaders revealed,2016Shanghai's cross-border e-commerce imports will experience explosive growth, which will be the second round of explosive growth in Shanghai's cross-border e-commerce imports after the first round of outbreak in 2015. The import scale will increase by 5-10 times compared to 2015.
According to statistics,In 2015, cross-border e-commerce direct mail imports of 122 million yuan and bonded imports of 317 million yuan were achieved through the Shanghai Cross border E-commerce Public Service Platform, totaling 439 million yuan, an increase of nearly 7 times year-on-year. Industry insiders have analyzed that the significant growth in the import scale of cross-border e-commerce in Shanghai in 2015 was mainly due to the relatively low base in 2014. However, the outbreak of cross-border e-commerce import scale this year is mainly due to the consolidation of Shanghai's comprehensive advantages after the policy depression is filled.
And,Many leading cross-border e-commerce companies, including Amazon, Tmall Global, and JD.com, have settled in Shanghai or plan to expand their business there.
along withA series of new policies targeting cross-border e-commerce have been introduced by central ministries and commissions,The issue of inconsistent regulatory standards among pilot cities for cross-border e-commerce will be addressed. After the large-scale convergence of regulatory scales in pilot cities, Shanghai's comprehensive advantages will gradually emerge.
Firstly, Shanghai has a huge port advantage compared to other pilot cities. Shanghai is a port and transportation hub, and one of the closest ports to Japan, South Korea, the United States, Canada, Australia, Hong Kong, China, and other places. The logistics volume in Shanghai is large, and the average logistics cost is low.
Secondly, the construction of Shanghai's comprehensive cross-border e-commerce pilot zone, free trade pilot zone, and Asia Pacific demonstration electronic port network will also bring stronger innovation to the development of cross-border e-commerce. At the same time, Shanghai also encourages eligible enterprises to build comprehensive service platforms, providing market-oriented services such as customs declaration, warehousing, logistics, tax refund, finance, talent training, etc. for cross-border e-commerce, and forming a positive interaction with public service platforms.
At present, pilot cities for cross-border e-commerce imports such as Hangzhou, Ningbo, and Chongqing have also established unique public service platforms. In contrast, Shanghai's public service platform has a higher degree of convenience due to its earliest launch and access to the most regulatory units (including customs, inspection and quarantine, foreign exchange, taxation, etc.). Moreover, in order to eliminate concerns about corporate data confidentiality and other aspects, Shanghai is upgrading its public service platform, and the online system is set aside for independent operation. Initially, the services are purchased by the government's finance, and no fees are charged to enterprises, which is a purely public welfare nature; Offline enterprises are also encouraged to build or rent bonded warehouses and connect with centralized inspection platforms for customs and inspection and quarantine.
MeanwhileMore and more leading cross-border e-commerce enterprises are planning to expand their business in Shanghai.It is understood that,Currently, JD has settled in Jiading and Yangshan. Ocean Pier, NetEase Kaola, Xiaohongshu, and others are also interested in expanding their cross-border e-commerce business in Shanghai.
It is worth noting that Shanghai is currently considering support policies for cross-border e-commerce, which may include a certain proportion of subsidies or venture capital funds.
