Order Fulfillment Requirements

All TikTok Shop Mall sellers are subjected to the order fulfillment timelines outlined in our TikTok Shop Customer Order Shipping Guidelines / Order Fulfillment Timelines article.

Return and Refund Requirements

15-day return & refund period: To enhance customer satisfaction, TikTok Shop Mall sellers will be required to offer customers a 15-day return period for all products purchased via TikTok Shop Mall. If a customer returns a product due to the seller's fault (such as "Wrong Product was Sent"), the return shipping fee will be charged to you. If the return is not due to the seller's fault (such as "No Longer Needed"), the return shipping fee will be charged to TikTok Shop.

Payment Settlement

The Extended Settlement Period will apply to TikTok Shop Mall sellers who do not meet the Express Settlement Period criteria. Please see our Payment Settlement guide for more information.

You will be disqualified from being a TikTok Shop Mall Seller if you are:
  • Proven to have sold counterfeit items.
  • Unable to provide valid documentation to establish brand ownership/authorization/authenticity of the products.

Sellers are still able to operate as non-TikTok Shop Mall sellers (subject to any other TikTok Shop enforcement action that may be placed on the seller).
