TikTok account status: where you stand, and what the 90 days mean

Your account status reflects your violation history over the last 90 days — Healthy, Fair, Severe or Banned. Account check shows which features are restricted right now. Both are a few taps away.

What the four statuses mean

TikTok names the four levels and says impact depends on the policy area and the feature (comments, DMs…). It doesn’t publish exact thresholds, so we don’t either.

How it moves

How a violation changes your status

  • Notice — you get a notification with the reason and how to appeal (Inbox → System notifications → Account updates).
  • Optional training — for some first violations, an in-app policy course can lift eligible restrictions.
  • Expiry — a violation stops counting after 90 days.
  • Appeal — approved appeals restore the content and the status.
Three screens: TikTok Studio with Account check, the Account check list with Comments restricted, and Account status on a Healthy to Banned scale

Questions

Account status questions

How long do TikTok violations last?
TikTok says violations expire after 90 days and are no longer taken into consideration.
Where do I see why something was removed?
In Inbox → System notifications → Account updates, or on the post: Community Guidelines violation: See details.
Will deleting the post fix my status?
No. TikTok says deleting violative content doesn’t remove the violation.
Can my status go straight to Banned?
Yes, for severe violations or not meeting the minimum age — TikTok may ban without going through the steps.
