In order to understand this ever-changing economic landscape and preparing to meet expectations in a sustainable manner, the international community is called upon to work together with all the concerned stakeholders along the supply chain in the various international fora, in particular the WCO and other international organizations. Against this backdrop, the First Global Cross-Border E-Commerce Conference, held from February 9 to 10, 2018 in Beijing, brought together nearly 2000 representatives from Customs administrations, other government agencies, e-commerce operators, international organizations, micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs), consumers and academia from various countries and regions. The Conference, which has provided an excellent opportunity for discussions and information sharing on sustainable development of cross-border e-commerce, recognized the huge opportunity to boost economic competitiveness, provide new growth engines, develop new trade models, drive new consumption trends and create new job opportunities. The Conference also acknowledged the relevance of cultivating transparent digital economy policy making. Noting that cross-border e-commerce requires new approaches and policy orientations, the Conference called upon all stakeholders to support its balanced, transparent, non- discriminatory and sustainable development, in an inclusive, strategic, innovative and collaborative manner. The Conference also acknowledged the need for proactively addressing current and emerging challenges, linked in particular to revenue collection, the protection of intellectual property rights and the security and safety of citizens.
