Why is the price of the same commodity different in different countries?

Because of taxes and costs. High taxes, high labor expenditure and high property will all raise the cost of goods. Because each country's manpower, property and taxes are different, the prices of goods will be different.

2. Cost, mainly manpower and property. Wages vary from country to country. Comparing China and Vietnam, China's average sales volume is 3000-5000, while Vietnam is still at the level of 1000. As for real estate, the rents of shops in China are notoriously high internationally. Generally, Vietnamese shops cost1-30,000 a month, while some shops in China rent hundreds of thousands a month.
