A major Chinese ecommerce platform has been accused of systematically bypassing customs duties by shipping high-value goods in small, duty-free parcels. Authorities allege the practice allows consumers to avoid import taxes on purchases that would otherwise qualify for higher tariffs. The scheme reportedly targets luxury and electronic items, exploiting a loophole designed for low-cost goods. Regulators are now investigating whether the company has violated trade laws.
