Abstract

The development of information technology and changes in people's consumption patterns have led to the rapid growth of the global cross-border e-commerce market. The result of cross-border e-commerce between China and Southeast Asia has been outstanding. With the increasing importance of cross-border e-commerce in the foreign trade of each country, China and Southeast Asian countries have taken cross-border e-commerce as an essential element to promote the high-quality development of bilateral trade. At present, the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (RCEP) has officially entered into force, providing new opportunities for the growth of cross-border e-commerce between China and Southeast Asia, which is not only conducive to unifying the rules and standards of the cross-border e-commerce market between China and Southeast Asia, helping China to improve the level of trade facilitation and optimise the supply chain system, but also providing institutional dividends for Chinese cross-border e-commerce enterprises to realise localised operations. At the same time, the development of cross-border e-commerce between China and Southeast Asian countries also faces a series of challenges, such as poor infrastructure, unified payment systems and a lack of cross-border e-commerce talent in Southeast Asian countries. In the future, it is necessary to strengthen the infrastructure construction in Southeast Asian countries, improve the cross-border payment system, train cross-border e-commerce talents and build cross-border e-commerce platforms to seize the development opportunities brought by the implementation of RCEP and achieve high-quality development of cross-border e-commerce between China and Southeast Asian countries.
