Temu, Shein suspend Vietnam operations amid crackdown on ecommerce platforms

Chinese online retailers Temu and Shein have suspended their operations in Vietnam in order to register their ecommerce services with the government. The Vietnamese authorities and domestic businesses were concerned about deep discounting by Chinese platforms and the potential sale of counterfeits. Vietnam demanded that Shein and Temu register by the end of November, or face blocked internet domains and app usage. Temu missed the registration deadline and will have its operations temporarily suspended. Shein's status is unclear, but its Vietnamese website is currently unavailable. The Vietnamese government recently approved legal changes regarding VAT and tax exemptions for foreign ecommerce platforms.
