Cross-border share of Thailand e-commerce (2022-2025)
~25-30% (2025E)
Cross-border parcels (predominantly from China via Shein, Temu, AliExpress, and direct Chinese marketplace consignees) climbed from roughly 12-15% of Thai online retail orders in 2022 to an estimated 25-30% in 2025 per Thai Customs and ETDA parcel scan data. The acceleration coincides with the July 2024 closure of the VAT-free under-THB-1,500 import threshold, which compressed price gaps but did not stop the volume surge. The Department of International Trade Promotion estimates Thai SMEs lost double-digit market share in fast-fashion apparel and accessories during this window.
