How to Get Unbanned on TikTok

Did TikTok banned you recently?

If you are banned, the message that you’ll get is, “Your account was permanently banned”.

If you’re banned, it means that you have violated one or more of TikTok’s community guidelines.

TikTok monitors content with the help of technology and human moderation.

As a result, they remove any content that violates their community guidelines.

Your account may be banned after severe or multiple violations.

In some cases, TikTok might falsely ban your account from the platform even if you have not violated any guidelines.

In this case, you have to send an appeal to TikTok if you are of the view that you’re banned by mistake.

However, if one or more of your videos are violating the community guidelines, the chances of getting unbanned are thin.

Having said that, you still can send an appeal.

In this post, I will guide you on how to get unbanned on TikTok.

How to get unbanned on TikTok

To get unbanned on TikTok, you need to use the “Share your feedback” form.

After reaching it, complete the form, submit it, and wait for a few days to get TikTok’s response.

TikTok will send you a response via the email address that you’ve given.

Therefore, make sure to check your inbox to check TikTok’s email.

The “Share your feedback” form enables you to share your feedback about your experience on the TikTok app.

In addition, the form can also be used to report a problem.

The form has multiple topics that you can choose from such as account ban/suspension.

A sub-topic can also be used which is a part of your problem.

Therefore, submitting the “Share your feedback” form is the best method to get unbanned on Tiktok.

Here’s a step by step guide on how to get unbanned on TikTok:

Step 1. Access the “Share your feedback” form

The first thing you need to do is to go to the “Share your feedback” form.

The “Share your feedback” form is can be used for sharing your feedback about your experience.

The form is also being used to report a problem that you’re facing on the app including an account suspension.

To get started, go to the “Share your feedback” form from your browser using this link: https://www.tiktok.com/legal/report/feedback.

After reaching the form, you need to first give your contact information.

There are a couple of contact information that you have to give them.

The info is your email address and your Tiktok username (optional).

Firstly, you have to enter your email address in the “Email address” field.

Try to use the similar email address that you’ve used to create your TikTok account.

The second thing is to enter your TikTok username in the “Username” field.

For instance, if your TikTok username is “greenhatexpert”, enter “greenhatexpert”.

It is optional to enter your TikTok username.

However, it’s an ideal move to include it especially since you’re sending an appeal.

Step 2. Fill in your contact information

After providing them with your contact information, scroll down the form.

In the middle of the form, you need to add 3 things.

These things are the topic, sub-topic, and a description of your appeal.

First of all, you need to tap on the “Topic” dropdown box.

After tapping on the “Topic” dropdown box, it will show you multiple options.

The options will be “General account inquiry”, “Account ban/suspension”, “Report a bug/Feature request”, and so on.

Since you want to get unbanned, select the “Account ban/suspension” option.

After that, tap on the “Tell us more” dropdown box.

A sub-topic should be selected that is related to your problem in the “Tell us more” dropdown box.

The “Tell us more” dropdown box has 3 options which include “Livestream”, “Banned account (age-related)”, and “Banned account (not age-related)”.

You need to choose the option that is most suitable for your case.

In the end, you need to illustrate your problem in the “How can we help?” field.

The description will be, “Hi, my TikTok account has been banned by accident. I did not violate any of the community guidelines of TikTok. Please re-consider it”.

Proceed to the final step to learn how to submit the form.

Step 3. Select a topic & describe what happened

After providing them a description of your problem, scroll down the form.

At the bottom of the form, it will show you an “Attachments” header.

You can upload more or less 10 screenshots under the “Attachments” header.

This is optional and depends on you if you’ve selected the “Banned account (not age-related)” option in the “Tell us more” dropdown box.

However, if you’ve selected the “Livestream” or the “Banned account (age-related)” option, you have to attach a photo of yourself holding your ID in the attachments.

It is to prove that you’re over the age of 16.

Otherwise, TikTok will not be able to verify your identity and your account will remain blocked.

In the end, tap on “Submit” to submit the form!

After submitting the form, you need to wait for a few days to get a TikTok response.

You can get a response from TikTok via the email address that you’ve provided.

If you are successful, you will get an email from TikTok stating that your account has been unbanned!

Why is my TikTok account banned?

Your TikTok account is banned due to the violation one or more of TikTok’s community guidelines.

Another common reason why your account is banned is that you are under age (below 16).

If you are using TikTok live and you are under the age of 16, TikTok may ban you from live streaming.

A banned or suspended TikTok account can be restored by filling up the “Share your feedback” form.

How long does a TikTok appeal take?

A TikTok appeal usually takes 1-3 business days.

If you’ve submitted the “Share your feedback” form, you will receive a response from TikTok via the email address that you’ve provided.

In the email, you will get an update from TikTok on the status of your appeal.

In some cases, it may take more than 3 days to get a response from TikTok and it depends on the complexity of the issue.

Final Words

You should follow the community guidelines of TikTok in order to prevent your TikTok account from getting banned.

Try to avoid posting anything that violates TikTok’s community guidelines or the risk of your account’s suspension will rise.

If you see content that violates it, you should report it from this link: https://support.tiktok.com/en/safety-hc/report-a-problem.

As a result, TikTok will review the video and take the action against it.
