The connectivity to the Internet by an ever-growing number of persons makes trading across borders more accessible through the use of e-commerce platforms/marketplaces and through emerging e-commerce business models.  

However, with the growth of Business-to-Consumer (B2C) and Consumer-to-Consumer (C2C) transactions, governments face an array of new challenges ranging from valuation and revenue collection concerns to safety and security risks. 

This session will explore how Customs can tap into the potential offered by the strategic engagement with new partners, such as fulfilment centres and financial service providers, with a view to fostering safe, secure and sustainable cross-border e-commerce through the implementation of the key principles of the WCO Framework of Standards on Cross-Border E-Commerce.
