EU countries agreed on Friday to impose a €3 tax on all parcels under €150 entering the bloc, an attempt to curb the growing dominance of Chinese e-commerce platforms such as Temu and Shein which sell billions of low-cost items on the EU market.
"With e-commerce expanding rapidly, the world is changing fast – and we need the right tools to keep pace," EU Trade Commissioner Maroš Šefčovič said.
