With the development of e-commerce consumption industry, consuming behaviors such as the oversea purchase, existing since China’s reform and opening-up, have become everyday phenomena. Oversea purchasing refers to the paid service in which the entrusted party (i.e., purchasing businesses) purchases commodities from countries or regions outside of Chinese mainland (such as Hongkong, Macao, Europe and the United States) in accordance with the commissioned party’s (consumers) requirements. In short, it is the paid service provided by the purchase business helping domestic consumers to buy foreign goods. However, the legitimate rights and interests of the oversea purchase of consumers are challenged because some relevant laws and regulations are insufficient. In order to achieve the purpose of protecting the legitimate interests of consumers, this thesis mainly analyzes oversea purchase from perspectives of its concept, characteristics, contract, legal dilemma and countermeasures. It adopts the combination of theory and practice, comparative analysis, system analysis and other research methods. Based on above factors and the practice, the oversea purchasing is divided into two common forms in accordance with the shopping habits of customers. After a detailed analysis of the establishment, operation and performance of oversea purchase, main reasons for the infringement of consumers’legitimate rights and interests derive. Those reasons include unclear purchasing information, the asymmetric information, exaggerated advertisement, fraudulent activity, due to which consumers can not make a right choice. Finally, by analyzing the predicament on the current laws and regulations of foreign purchasing protection, the great need for legal protection on rights and interests of overseas purchasing consumers is put forward. Aiming at the existing legal protection situations and the current legal framework, solutions are provided to promote and improve the oversea purchase of the legitimate rights and interests of consumers.
