# TikTok removed your video: how to review the notice and appeal By HeyMark · Updated October 29, 2026 If TikTok notified you that it removed your video, you can review the reason and submit an appeal from the notice if you believe the decision was incorrect. First confirm that the notice says the content was removed: a video under review or ineligible for the For You feed follows a different route. ## Confirm which decision you received Open the notice and check that it identifies a content removal. TikTok says a pending review may end in removal or a decision that the video is ineligible for the For You feed. While the review is still pending, you do not have that decision yet. If the notice says the video is under review, see [what it means when a TikTok video is under review](https://heymark.ai/en/solutions/tiktok-video-under-review/). If the notice says the video is ineligible for the For You feed, that concerns recommendations in that feed, not removal. Follow the steps to [review and appeal that decision in Analytics](https://heymark.ai/en/solutions/appeal-tiktok-video-ineligible-for-you-feed/). The steps below are for a Community Guidelines removal. If the notice mentions copyright, follow the route in that notice and TikTok's [Intellectual Property Policy](https://www.tiktok.com/legal/copyright-policy?lang=en). If you deleted the post yourself, you did not receive a removal decision to appeal. See how to [restore a post you deleted](https://heymark.ai/en/solutions/restore-deleted-tiktok-post/). If the notice says your whole account was banned, follow the guide to [appeal a TikTok account ban](https://heymark.ai/en/solutions/appeal-tiktok-account-ban/). ## Submit an appeal from the notice For a Community Guidelines removal, TikTok documents two in-app routes: 1. Open **Inbox** and tap the notification that says your content was removed. 2. Tap **Submit an appeal** and follow TikTok's instructions. You can also go to the removed post, tap **Community Guidelines violation: See details**, then tap **Submit an appeal**. Provide the information TikTok requests about the reason in the notice. If the app confirms that you submitted it, keep that notification and check account updates for a response. TikTok does not publish a general timeframe for all appeals. If it approves your appeal, it may reinstate the content and account status, provided you have not already deleted the content or account. Deleting violative content does not remove the violation. If you delete a post after appealing while it is under review, TikTok says it may be unable to remove the violation from your record or restore the video. ## If the appeal option is missing Check that you opened the notice about the removed content and are signed in to the correct account. If **Submit an appeal** still does not appear, report the issue to TikTok in the app: **Profile → Menu ☰ → Settings and privacy → Help Center → Chat with us**. You can also use TikTok's [official online form](https://www.tiktok.com/legal/report/feedback). Attach the notice or a screenshot if the form or support team asks for one. Explain that the appeal option is missing and include the text of the notice. Reporting that issue does not submit the appeal; check afterwards whether the option becomes available. Check TikTok's official help on [removed posts](https://www.tiktok.com/support/faq_detail?id=7543604780950624824&lang=en) and [content violations and bans](https://www.tiktok.com/support/faq_detail?id=7543604781940791864&lang=en) for instructions that apply to your notice. ## See it on your own accounts.
