Keep in mind that each shipping provider has its requirements for the package weight and dimensions. It’s better to check them at once. In addition, you should use the Shipping Calculator to estimate your shipping costs.


Guide to Enrolling in Various Shipping Options

In Seller Center, go to Orders > Shipping Options. Here, you can select between Seller Shipping and TikTok Shipping.

Key points:

  • The shipping method is determined at the account level, meaning you cannot use different methods for separate orders.

  • Adjustments to the shipping method will only affect new orders. For example, if you change from Seller Shipping to TikTok Shipping on November 8, all orders placed before that date must continue using Seller Shipping.
