Hungarians turned away from Temu and AliExpress

A recent Ipsos survey commissioned by Dodo reveals that nearly one-third of Hungarians have stopped ordering from Asian online shops since the EU's new customs reforms took effect on July 1. An additional 33% are ordering less frequently, while 5% continue to shop often but choose fewer product categories. This trend is supported by data from the Hungarian Tax Authority (NAV) and was evident even earlier in the summer. Hungarian online stores are the main beneficiaries, with 29% of respondents now purchasing from local sites and 21% from other EU countries. Notably, 40% of shoppers prioritize the ability to select delivery times, and 30% want more information on delivery status after purchase.
