초록

중국은 세계에서 가장 큰 전자상거래 시장으로서 중국 온라인 소매시장은 미국보다 약 40% 크며, 양국은 전세계 전자상거래 시장의 55% 이상을 차지하고 있다. 한 중 FTA는 한중 양국의 상품, 서비스의 전자상거래 확대와 국가간 전자상거래 활동을 촉진시킬 것이다. 한국산 소비재는 기술과 품질 측면에서 중국시장에서 경쟁우위를 가지고 있기 때문에 FTA 혜택을 향유할 수 있다. 본 연구는 한 중 FTA 전자상거래 협정문의 주요쟁점을 검토하고 이를 바탕으로 한국 상품의 전자상거래 수출확대를 위한 활용과제에 대해 문헌연구를 중심으로 살펴보았다. 이러한 연구결과를 바탕으로 다음과 같은 시사점을 제시하고자 한다. 한국 상품의 전자상거래 수출확대를 위해서는 한 중 FTA 전자상거래 협정의 후속협상에 대한 준비와 전자적 전송물의 분류에 대한 대비를 하여야 한다. 그리고 전자인증과 전자서명에 있어 양국의 상호인정이 필요하며, 전자상거래 분쟁해결을 위한 제도의 마련과 한국 상품의 전자상거래 수출확대를 위한 전략의 수립 등이 필요하다.

The Korea China FTA is likely to facilitate e-commerce activity between the two countries, as well as trade in the goods and services that enable e-commerce. Korean consumer goods can enjoy the benefits of the FTA because it has a competitive advantage in the Chinese market in terms of technology and quality. The purpose of this study is to examine legal issues of e-commerce chapters of the Korea China FTA and policy implications. Results of the study show that several implications based on the export vitalization of cross-border e-commerce of Korean products are offered. The Korean government needs to do the following: prepare for the subsequent negotiation of the e-commerce agreement, prepare for the classification issue of electronic transmissions, require mutual recognition of electronic authentication and electronic signatures, prepare for e-commerce dispute settlement mechanism and establish of strategies for the export vitalization of e-commerce.
