On The Policy Research Courier Services Purchased Under The Background Of The Development Of Cross-border Networks

Continuously enlarging scale of import and export trade in our country has become an important factor in stimulating the economic development since1980’s. In Zhejiang, Guangdong and other coastal areas, foreign trade has become a key economic pillar locally. And cheap but quality Chinese goods are very popular worldwide. With the steady growth of income, our people’s demand for international commodity has gradually increased. At beginning, when people travel in foreign country, they will buy a lot of goods. And then, with the emergence of electronic commerce, there has formed a trend, which called cross-border online shopping. It is a rising cross-border trade mode with broad developing prospects and gradual recognition and support from the government.Express service is an important support for cross-border online shopping. The close combination of the individuation and fast character of express service and cross-border online shopping gradually realize the complementary advantages and linkage development. Promoting the development of the express service is in accord with the needs of steadying growth, adjusting structure, solving employment problems and vigorously developing service industry; it is also in accord with the needs of steadying export scale under the background of economic downturn worldwide.Currently, the development of cross-border online shopping and relevant express service in our country is still in the primary status. Express companies’ abilities of supporting the growing domestic market of cross-border online shopping is still insufficient and the domestic express service standards cannot meet the needs of the cross-border online shopping. More importantly, the government has not yet fully adjusted the policy structure of express service and cross-border online shopping. The old supervision mode does not meet the needs today and particularly the customs, intellectual property, informatization and so on, have become the bottleneck restricting the rapid development of cross-border online shopping. The superstructure must adapt to the economic base, otherwise it will become the shackles of economic development. Nowadays, with the deepening economic system reform in our country, the government should pay great attention to issues in development policy of cross-border online shopping and express services, and take comprehensive measures to solve the problems involved.
