The final results have not yet been presented, but so far evidence has been presented that, among other things, sunglasses without UV filters, pacifiers that pose a choking hazard and toxic substances in raincoats for children have been sold.
It's not just about protecting consumers, but it's also a very serious issue of equal terms for European companies, as they are expected to compete with sellers who do not follow our rules, says EU Justice Commissioner Michael McGrath to the newspaper.
According to McGrath, the EU is considering abolishing the duty-free limit of 150 euros and introducing additional fees for each package to deter low-cost purchases. In addition, they are considering introducing a common customs authority.
The EU and China will meet in Beijing on Friday. McGrath says that he then plans to raise the issue of Shein and Temu.
