EU Officials Just Flew to China to Check on AliExpress. We Got There First. 🛬🔍

Last week, a group of EU lawmakers landed in Beijing. Their mission? To inspect AliExpress, Temu, Shein — face to face.

They're asking tough questions about safety, counterfeit goods, and what fills 91% of Europe's small parcels. 🧐

While they were in meeting rooms with regulators…

We were inside AliExpress's Hangzhou campus, walking the same floors the officials asked to see.

No press releases. No filtered statements. Just us, the operations team, and a brutally honest look at how they actually manage cross-border selling into Europe.

We sat through a session on seller vetting — the messy, unglamorous work of kicking out bad actors before they ship.

We saw how they flag risky products. How they're racing to stay ahead of EU rules, not just react to them.

Here's what stood out: They're not pretending compliance is easy. They're building systems — fast — because they know Europe isn't going to wait.
