中美应对跨境电子商务法律挑战的异同

On How China and the US Respond to the Legal Challenges of Cross-border E-commerce

WTO对跨境电子商务规制的不足使中美两国面临共同的法律挑战。比较两国的自贸区协定发现,他们对跨境电子商务法律挑战的应对方法具有趋同性,然而在跨境电子商务法律规制的实质内容方面却存有分歧。尽管如此,中美两国仍将在数字产品的分类和处理、消费者和个人信息保护等方面最终达成一致。

The inadequate WTO regulations on the cross-border e-commerce pose common legal challenges for China and the US. A comparison of their ETA agreements found that they adopt similar measures in responding to the legal challenges of cross-border e-commerce, yet there are differences in terms of the substantial content of the legal regulations concerning cross- border e-commerce. Nevertheless, China and the US will eventually reach an agreement on the classification and handling of digital products as well as on the protection of consumers and personal information.
