Summary
Step 5 (Upload Required Documents) clarified and restructured into guidance format. No new requirements added: SDS/UN 38.3 documentation and exemptions (e.g., AA alkaline) were already mandated in underlying policy. Text reorganized for navigation only.
Why it matters
This is a presentation-only change. Sellers were already required to upload SDS or UN 38.3 test summaries for lithium batteries and understood exemptions. The reformat improves readability but does not alter compliance obligations or deadlines. No behavioral change required.
Recommended action
No action required. Review the updated guide for clarity, but verify your current battery documentation submission practices already align with the stated requirements (they should, as rules unchanged).
Upload SDS or UN 38.3 test summary if required
If exempt (for example, AA alkaline batteries), Tik Tok Shop may only require basic safety information
