Summary
TikTok Shop documentation clarified acceptable ID types for seller onboarding (passport, driver license, state ID, green card). No new requirements; existing policy restated in Q&A format for accessibility.
Why it matters
Sellers flagged during identity verification can now self-diagnose acceptable ID types and resubmit correctly without support delays. Reduces rejection friction during account setup but does not alter enforcement consequences.
Recommended action
Review your ID documentation against the published list during seller onboarding. If flagged, verify you are submitting an accepted type (not learner permit or paper copy) with clear, legible details.
Q:
My ID was flagged as not acceptable. What types of ID are allowed?
