NordVPN support's recommendations for accessing TikTok

If you are unable to access TikTok with our VPN, please try these steps:

Close the TikTok app entirely, ensuring it is not running in the background.
Once closed, connect to a non-US server and then reopen the app.

If you have already deleted your TikTok application, you will need to change your Apple App Store location by following this guide: https://nordvpn.com/blog/change-app-store-country/

If changing the App Store location to download TikTok does not help, you can try creating a new AppleID and tie it to another country.

If you’ve succeeded by following these steps, please share your experience in the comments. Additionally, if you’ve discovered other workarounds, feel free to share them with the community.

Thank you!

Tried using it with Canada, Mexico, France servers and none are working. TikTok seems to be blocking by detecting US based accounts.

TikTok has blocked NordVPN from accessing TikTok.com, you’ll get a server error if you try it

I fucking hate tiktok. I’m happy to see it go. However I :100: support y’all trying to figure out how to get around the US ban. Love it. Just wish I gave a shit about the platform. Good luck y’all.

What I want to know is why the web browser is able to tell I’m the U.S. when I’m not signed into an account. Doesn’t that mean Nord VPN doesn’t do what it claims to do?

You need to create a new non-US account

I was able to access tiktok! I used NordVPN, connected to UK with an incognito window. I tried other locations and noticed that the ISP was often the same. *I tried Canada first, After a few attempts, I am connected (10:00 am EST from USA on 1/19/25)
