A nine-member delegation led by Anna Cavazzini, Chair of the European Parliament's Committee on the Internal Market and Consumer Protection, will visit Beijing and Shanghai from tomorrow to Thursday (March 31 to April 2). This marks the first visit by a European Parliament delegation to China in eight years, with a focus on digital economy and e-commerce regulation issues. Members of the European Parliament will articulate the EU's stance on digital regulation, strategic autonomy, and secure digital markets, with an emphasis on enhancing consumer protection and product safety. The committee is particularly concerned about systemic violations of EU law and the influx of non-compliant small parcels from non-EU online platforms, including those from China. European Parliament members stressed that all traders, regardless of their HQ location, must comply with EU product safety rules. During the visit, the European Parliament delegation will meet with prominent officials in Beijing, including Shen Chunyao, Director of the Legislative Affairs Commission of the National People's Congress Standing Committee, and Luo Wen, Director of the State Administration for Market Regulation. The delegation will visit the European Union Chamber of Commerce in China to explore online trade and market access challenges faced by European businesses in China. They will also discuss consumer and product safety standards with e-commerce giants Shein and Alibaba. Additionally, consultations will continue in Shanghai with Temu on compliance with EU digital market rules and fair competition issues. The delegation will also engage with the General Administration of Customs of China and a local logistics company at the strategically significant Pudong International Airport to gain insights into customs controls and import-export activities.
