  1. What if my label is rejected?
To create a shipping label, TikTok Shop must confirm the shipping information with the carrier. If the system confirms the shipping information from the carrier, labels are successfully generated. However, if an error code from the carrier is received, label creation cannot be completed.
If we receive an error code, a "Label rejected" notice will be displayed for that order at the bottom of the page. Don't panic! We will show the reason for the error code and suggest ways to fix the problem. Once you’ve resolved the issue, you can click Recreate Label to continue the process.

Different types of errors may cause your shipping labels to be rejected. Common errors include:
Types of Errors
  • An issue with the buyer’s address
  • An oversized product
  • An order failure with the shipping provider
Depending on what caused the rejection, issues can often be solved in just a few quick steps or, for more serious problems, you can contact the TikTok Shop customer service team to get more information on why the label was rejected.
  1. Recreate or reprint on the Shipping Labels page
Once you successfully address any issues with your failed labels and are ready to recreate or reprint them, you can do so on the Shipping Labels page, which supports bulk processing. The Shipping Labels page clearly shows your printing results and makes it easy to directly handle any issues, saving you a lot of time during fulfillment.
