Chinese junk will be expensive for society – we will lose tax revenue and jobs

According to the Finnish Commerce Federation’s calculations, Finland will lose a significant amount of tax revenue due to the wave of e-commerce goods arriving from outside the EU. In addition to the loss of tax revenue, distance selling outside the EU threatens the employment of domestic commerce, consumer safety and the circular economy. Solutions can be found, for example, in the monitoring of distance selling, improving consumers' purchasing power and strengthening the competitiveness of domestic commerce.
