How to Register as a Seller on TikTok Shop by Tokopedia

Access the seller registration page; you’ll find two account types: Business Seller and Individual Seller. Here’s what you need to know:
  1. Register as a Business Entity Seller!

Do you have a registered business with complete legal documentation? If yes, registering as a Business Seller is the best option for you.
This account type is ideal if you plan to expand your business on a larger scale or have long-term business goals.
Here’s how to register as a Business Seller:

a. Ensure Your Business is Registered and Licensed

Before registering, double-check that your business is officially licensed and make sure you have legal permits, such as:
  • Trade Business License (SIUP).
  • Company Registration Certificate (TDP).
  • Or at least a Business Identification Number (NIB).
These documents are the “keys” to officially recognizing your business as a legitimate legal entity. Don’t worry; the process is simpler than you think.

b. A Maximum of 5 Accounts per Business

TikTok Shop by Tokopedia allows a business entity to have up to five seller accounts.
This rule is designed to maintain fairness and prevent misuse. Plan wisely how to use these accounts, perhaps one for wholesale, another for retail, or for specific product branding.
Strategically plan how to divide these accounts; for example, one for your main product line, wholesale needs, retail, or specific product branding.

c. Business Name Must Match the Documents

Ensure the business name you register matches exactly with the name on your legal documents, such as SIUP or NIB.
Avoid typos or mismatches that could delay the verification process.

d. Business Type and License Validity Must Align

Double-check your business type and the validity of your license. These details must align with the information you provide during registration.
For instance, if your license is for the food industry, ensure this matches the products you sell on TikTok Shop by Tokopedia.
Don’t attempt to use food business documents to sell fashion items, as mismatched data could hinder verification or lead to registration failure.
For complete details, refer to TikTok Shop by Tokopedia's Seller Registration Guidelines.
  1. Register as an Individual Seller

Don’t have a registered business yet? No worries! You can still sell on TikTok Shop by Tokopedia as an Individual Seller. This is perfect if you’re starting a small business.
To register:
  • You must be at least 18 years old to ensure you can take full responsibility for your business.
  • If you’re under 18, you can team up with a parent or guardian to register.
Prepare the following official documents in digital format:
  • ID card (KTP).
  • Taxpayer Identification Number (NPWP).
  • A copy of your bank account statement.
These documents will need to be uploaded during the registration process.

Why Your Seller Account Registration Might Fail

Sometimes, your seller account registration may not go through. Here are some common reasons and how to avoid them:
  1. Legal Issues

If you or your business is involved in legal disputes like consumer protection violations, trade offenses, or other legal cases, your application may be rejected.
Solution: Resolve any legal issues first before attempting to register again.
  1. Under Investigation

TikTok Shop by Tokopedia does not accept registrations from businesses under investigation for illegal activities, such as pyramid schemes or other illicit practices.
Ensure your business is free from such investigations for a smooth registration process.
  1. Incomplete or Invalid Documents

One of the most common mistakes is incomplete or incorrect documents. For example, blurry document scans or unsupported file formats include uploading incomplete documents.
Solution: Follow the document upload guidelines carefully to ensure successful registration.

Tips Before Registering

Here’s what you should do before registering as a seller:
  • Ensure all documents are complete and meet the requirements.
  • Double-check the accuracy of your data. Small errors like a typo in your name or birth date can cause delays.
  • Verify your business is free from legal issues.
  • Use a stable internet connection to avoid disruptions during the document upload process.
