Summary
Page restructured to expand restricted products guidance. Added detailed explanation of 3 qualification levels (category, product, invite-only) and compliance workflow. No new requirements—existing rules restated with improved clarity.
Why it matters
Sellers selling restricted products (Beauty, Electronics, Food, Medical Devices) should review expanded guidance. Policy remains unchanged; no new deadlines or enforcement triggers. Update aids compliance navigation only.
Recommended action
Review updated page structure. If currently selling restricted products, verify qualification level remains valid. No policy behavior change required.
No new content was added in this update.
Summary
One-line takeaway: Restricted products need category, product, or invite-only approval before selling.
Core Value/Change:
① Three qualification levels apply to restricted products ② approval is not guaranteed ③ Tik Tok Shop may request more documents anytime
Thresholds & Requirements:
① Category-level covers listed categories like Beauty, Electronics, Food, Medical Devices ② other restricted categories need product-level review ③ some categories are invite-only
Red Lines & Compliance:
① Sellers who don’t meet requirements cannot list restricted products ② violations may trigger points deduction, listing removal, or selling access revocation ③ appeals are available
Immediate next action: Check your product’s qualification level
Key Points:
To sell restricted products, sellers must meet specific qualification requirements—either at the category-level or product-level. Approval is not guaranteed; Tik Tok Shop may request additional documentation at any time during the listing process or while the product is live.
