  ABSTRACT: In China’s development in foreign business, companies are suffering losses which British and European companies have experienced as well decades ago from the United States extraterritorial jurisdiction, effective countermeasures are needed badly. UK and EU respectively adopted blocking statutes to counteract in last century. Though both are blocking statutes, they have different aims and targets, they’re respectively against two kinds of extraterritorial laws. Countermeasures set therein can be concluded to three: refusing the effects of foreign judgments and orders from foreign authority, recovering the damages from specific awards and prohibiting the providing of information to foreign authority. This article mainly discusses the first countermeasures through comparing existing Chinese one with EU and UK. The adoption of “the Rules on Counteracting Unjustified Extraterritorial Application of Foreign Legislation and Other Measures” is China’s first try in blocking statute, which absorbs some experience therefrom but also leaves some gaps. Through comparative analysis this article aims to provide for advice on this matter.
