TikTok Shop’s Development In Indonesia Is Hindered

Jayson 02 Jan 2024 07:30

According to relevant media reports, TikTok Shop Indonesia has recently imposed some restrictions on all sellers, including only allowing sellers to process 100 orders in a single day, sellers are temporarily unable to place advertisements, and the selling goods through livestreaming function of the tiktok shopping is not currently enabled, etc.



It is reported that it is not yet certain whether these restrictions are authorized by Indonesian officials, but if the news is true, then these restrictions will have a certain impact on sellers' sales. This reflects that TikTok Shop still faces some challenges in the Indonesian market.



Previously, Indonesian local e-commerce giant Tokopedia, which has cooperated with TikTok Shop, recently announced that their trading activities have been approved by the Indonesian Ministry of Trade, but there will be a trial period of 3-4 months.



This trial period is a policy launched by the Indonesian Ministry of Trade to allow platforms such as TikTok Shop to accept the supervision of relevant Indonesian ministries and agencies.
