Tracking and Performance Metrics (LDR, OTDR, VTR, SFCR) #

  • Late Dispatch Rate (LDR) is measured over 7 calendar days and applies when packages take more than 2 working days. Must be 4% or lower.
  • On Time Delivery Rate (OTDR) is the percentage of EU packages (over 7 calendar days) delivered within the defined SLA. Applies to Ship by Seller only; a healthy OTDR is 70% or higher.
  • Valid Tracking Rate (VTR) is the percentage of packages Shipped by Seller that use a tracked shipping method by approved couriers. Applies to Ship by Seller only and must be 95% or higher
  • Seller-Fault Cancellation Rate (SFCR): must be 2.5% or lower (e.g., out-of-stock or incorrect pricing cancellations).

Labels, Data, and Packing Essentials #

Confirming orders #

  • Review inventory as soon as you receive an order.
  • If you cannot fulfill an order, please cancel it by following the TikTok Shop EU Customer Order Cancellation, Return, and Refund Policy.
  • Maintain accurate stock levels to prevent cancellations and protect Shop Health.

Packaging orders #

  • Use the correct package size and type.
  • Ship only products permitted by the carrier.
  • Follow the logistics provider’s instructions for special handling (for example: liquids, sharp items, fragile items, perishables, textiles, hazardous materials).
  • Notify the carrier before shipping if special handling is required.

Labelling orders #

All packages must have a shipping label securely affixed, including:

  • Customer name and full postal address (including zip/postal code)
  • Customer order number
  • Seller full name and address

Unauthorized information on labels

  • Hyperlinks
  • QR codes
  • Contact information from other platforms
  • Information irrelevant to the order

Hazardous & Prohibited Goods #

Hand-off & Monitoring #

  • Use TikTok Shop approved integrated carriers only.
  • Upload a unique, valid Tracking ID for each parcel in Seller Center. Failure can impact VTR.
  • Parcels not scanned in time by the LSP can lead to high LDR.
  • After the carrier collects the package, check if the status updates to “Shipped.”

Prohibited Shipping Behaviours #

  • Shipping empty packages
  • Shipping incomplete order units
  • Shipping products not matching product detail page or order details
  • Forging shipping label information (warehouse addresses, routes, receiver info, delivery addresses)
  • Tracking misrepresentation:
    • invalid tracking numbers
    • duplicated tracking numbers
    • no logistics info after tracking ID has been provided for 24 hours
  • Inconsistency between the customer's delivery address and the logistics route
  • Inconsistency between order and shipping data
  • Other inaccurate or wrong shipping information
  • Underpaid postage (postage paid for a lower weight than the package sent)
