Local E-Commerce Companies Criticize Tax Breaks for Temu, SHEIN, AliExpress

Local e-commerce businesses have voiced strong opposition to the government’s decision to grant tax breaks to international platforms such as Temu, SHEIN, and AliExpress. Industry representatives argue that these concessions create an uneven playing field, making it harder for domestic companies to compete.

According to local sellers, the move could lead to reduced market share for homegrown platforms, potential job losses, and slower growth in the national e-commerce sector. They are urging policymakers to reconsider the decision and implement fair taxation policies for all online sellers, regardless of origin.

The government has yet to respond to these concerns, but industry experts warn that unchecked foreign competition could have long-term impacts on Pakistan’s digital economy.
