The EU Commission has categorized the Chinese online marketplace Temu as a very large online platform. Due to its size, the platform falls within the scope of the Digital Services Act (DSA), the Commission announced. This makes Temu the 24th platform to fall under the particularly strict rules that apply to very large online platforms and search engines. With 75 million monthly users across Europe, the online retailer already clearly exceeds the threshold. A platform is considered very large if it has 45 million users or more.
