When passed, the European Union (EU) Goods Package, as the legislation is called, will have ramifications to e-commerce that are at least as significant than the move by some countries to reduce or eliminate de minimis thresholds. Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) who sell online into the EU will be the most severely affected. The added administration and compliance requirements could cost businesses as much as €2,500 annually. This amount could equal the annual margins of some smaller firms that sell online today.  Firms from Asia are especially at risk.
