Automated review, account health, and a 30-day window to resolve a first suspension.

TikTok uses automated and human review signals to evaluate ads and landing pages. Account Health can move from “Attention Needed” to “Poor,” and a Poor status can result in suspension. For a first suspension, TikTok says advertisers generally have 30 days to address the issue or submit an appeal; severe violations can lead to immediate suspension.

  1. An ad can be rejected, limited or affected by quality signals
  2. Account Health can show Attention Needed when issues require action
  3. Poor account health can result in suspension and stop ad delivery
  4. For a first suspension, there is generally a 30-day window to address the issues or appeal; severe violations can be immediate

The TikTok rules that reject most ads
