Abstract

With the rapid development of the electronic technology industry in the new era of digitalization, a series of emerging e-commerce platforms such as Google, Amazon, and Taobao have emerged. Digital platforms have created huge economic benefits for various countries and promoted economic development. However, with the increase in e-commerce platforms, many problems have begun to surface, the most representative of which is the tax issue. This article discusses the current status of taxation on e-commerce platforms and summarizes the existing problems. The main problems with taxation at present are the slow pace of system updates and the serious problem of tax evasion on cross-border platforms. Applying specific mathematical models is a way to observe the future trend of taxation issues. Finally, some possible measures to solve taxation problems in the future are proposed, as well as how countries should jointly deal with e-commerce platform taxation issues under the trend of globalization.
