The government of France is now in a "state of war" with the Chinese e-commerce platform Shein.
As announced by the Minister of Public Finance, the two hundred thousand parcels that arrived in the last 24 hours through the platform and from Roissy Charles de Gaulle airport, in France, will be thoroughly checked.
The investigation will contribute to ongoing legal proceedings against Shein by verifying the "accuracy of declarations and compliance with tax and customs obligations," the French minister said, while pointing out that "initial findings reveal non-compliant and illegal products," citing as examples "unauthorized cosmetics, toys dangerous for children, counterfeit products and defective household appliances."
