TikTok Shop policy update: Added a new dedicated High-Risk Regulated Goods section explicitly…
- Added a new dedicated High-Risk Regulated Goods section explicitly prohibiting creators from depicting, using, promoting, or implying use of drugs (cannabis, THC, CBD), tobacco, nicotine products, and smoking-related accessories in any content — including LIVEs and videos — even when no selling behavior is present.
- Tightened enforcement scope by clarifying that content-side enforcement operates independently of listing-side governance, meaning creators can receive violations for showing regulated goods in content even if no product is listed for sale.
- Extended the Illegal and Criminal Activity section with specific enumerated examples including unauthorized surveillance, hate speech, and violent extremism — giving TikTok clearer grounds to act on a broader range of content.
- Added a minor cosmetic punctuation fix to the AIGC clause ('Otherwise, violates…') with no substantive enforcement change.
