> then allow anyone to import stuff from a faraway country that doesn't have to follow those rules. Importers are also bound to the certification rules. For example when I buy the weird canned beverage from the Chinese restaurant in the middle of campus the can itself is of course intended for sale only in China so it's full of typical Chinese tropes - but the rules say you can't sell this if it doesn't obey rules so the importer sticks the minimum amount of extra info, in English, to every single can. This reminds me of Americans thinking exporters will pay their import tariffs. No, your rules only apply to your businesses, you might force foreign businesses to lower prices so as to remain competitive, but, you might just not.
