Prohibited Products
High riskProducts that are banned or prohibited from sale on TikTok Shop, including firearms, weapons, controlled substances, dangerous goods, and counterfeit items.
What this covers
Listing a prohibited product on TikTok Shop — whether a firearm, controlled substance, counterfeit good, or dangerous chemical — results in immediate removal and typically triggers an account strike, not a warning. Listings for accessories that are not themselves prohibited can still be flagged if the product's primary use is associated with a prohibited item (e.g., solvent trap kits, certain blade types). If a product is on the prohibited list, there is no appeals path through policy compliance — the correct action is immediate removal.
