Verifying Your Identity: What You Need To Do

Here at TikTok Shop, we want to provide our users with a fun yet safe shopping environment. At times, we may ask you to re-verify your identity (ID). This can happen if we detect risk from your shop or products, such as a spike in negative customer reviews or policy violations. This guide covers how to re-verify your identity, including what documents you'll need to have ready.

Steps to complete verification:
