Description
Selling internationally can unlock significant growth, but cross-border ecommerce also brings a more complex regulatory and tax landscape. This session is designed for businesses that want to take their online sales into overseas markets with a clearer understanding of the rules that can affect how they trade. We will explore essential ecommerce regulations relevant to international selling, with particular focus on Europe, including key consumer, product safety, platform and data-related requirements that online businesses need to be aware of when entering or expanding in those markets.
The webinar will also cover VAT and other taxes, helping businesses understand where common obligations can arise in cross-border ecommerce and why tax planning should be considered early as part of international growth. This session will provide a practical overview of the issues businesses should factor into their planning so they can approach international ecommerce expansion with greater confidence and preparedness.
