As TikTok's e-commerce sector in the global market develops rapidly, more and more sellers are selling products
to the United States through the platform. However, as cross-border e-commerce business grows, return issues are
also increasing. So, what is the specific process for TikTok returns in the United States? How to better handle these returns?
1. TikTok return process in the United States
In the United States, TikTok's return process is similar to other e-commerce platforms, aiming to provide consumers
with a convenient return experience. The specific process is as follows:
Submit a return application
Consumers usually need to submit a return application within 14 to 30 days after receiving the goods. TikTok sets
different return deadlines based on product categories and seller policies. Consumers can find the "Apply for Return"
button on TikTok's order page and select the reason for the return, such as dislike of the product, quality problems,
inappropriate size, etc.
Seller confirmation and return label generation
After receiving the return request, the seller will review and confirm whether to agree to the return. Generally, after the
return application is approved, TikTok or the seller will provide the buyer with a return label, and consumers can choose
to print it themselves or use the prepaid return service provided by TikTok.
Logistics and return receipt
Consumers need to return the goods to the designated warehouse or logistics point according to the instructions of the
platform or seller. In the United States, returns are usually transported by mainstream express companies such as UPS,
FedEx, and USPS. Some sellers may also provide door-to-door pickup services.
Refund or replacement of goods
After receiving the returned goods, the seller usually conducts a quality inspection on the goods to confirm the status of
the goods. If the goods are not damaged and meet the return conditions, the seller will complete the refund within 5 to 7
working days. Consumers can also choose to replace the goods or get a merchant coupon.
2. Common questions about TikTok returns
Who bears the return shipping cost?
In general, unless there is a quality problem with the goods or the goods are sent by mistake, the return shipping cost is
borne by the consumer. Some sellers will provide prepaid return labels, and consumers can return the goods through
designated express channels.
How long does it take to return a refund?
It usually takes 7 to 10 working days from the seller receiving the returned goods to the refund being received. Different
payment methods will affect the refund speed.
