Tracking & Performance Metrics #

Tracking rules you must follow #

  • Upload tracking either in bulk (Excel import) or manually in Seller Center.
  • Tracking can be edited once, only before “Delivered.”
  • Tracking updates must be submitted within 60 days of the order date.
  • Do not delete or move columns in the bulk upload template (risk of upload errors).

Performance metrics referenced in your materials #

These are the operational metrics TikTok Shop uses for logistics assessment:

  • Seller Fault Cancellation Rate (SFCR) below 2.5%. 
  • LDR (Late Dispatch Rate) below 4%. 
  • Seller-fault Return/Refund Rate below 1.5%
  • Order Negative Review Rate below 1.5%
  • VTR (Valid Tracking Rate) - 95% or higher
  • OTDR(On Time Delivery Rate) at or more than 70%

Labels, Data, and Packing Essentials #

Shipped by Seller (3PL): Upload tracking correctly

You can upload tracking in two ways:

  • Bulk (Excel): Orders > Manage Orders > Upload. Fill Shipping Provider Name + Tracking ID. Don’t move/delete columns. Upload the file back.
  • Manual: Orders > Manage Orders. Filter Shipped by Seller. Select orders > Add Tracking Info. Enter tracking ID, choose carrier, Submit.

Shipped by TikTok Shop (4PL): Label printing requirements

  • Print labels 102 x 152 mm, landscape. Text must be clear and fully visible.
  • Drop-off and Pick-up labels are not interchangeable. Using the wrong label can lead to rejection, return, or delivery failure.

Hazardous & Prohibited Goods #

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

Hand-off & Monitoring #

Shipped by Seller (3PL)

You are responsible for monitoring the shipment and fixing issues fast:

  • You are responsible for monitoring shipment status and handling shipping-related buyer issues (delays, misdeliveries, lost parcels).
  • Use Action Needed and the Logistics issue filter (example issue types shown include “No tracking data found” and “Logistic Provider Mismatch”).

Shipped by TikTok Shop (4PL)

  • Drop-off at a local parcel shop (default) or Pick-up from your warehouse (if selected).
  • For Pick-up: the system schedules collection for the next working day based on parcels in RTS (“Awaiting Collection”).

Prohibited Shipping Behaviours (Zero-Tolerance) #

  • Uploading early or fake tracking info to trigger RTS is strictly against platform policy.
  • Using an unauthorised carrier can result in automatic order cancellation with no compensation to the seller.
  • Using the wrong handover label (Drop-off label used for Pick-up or vice versa) can cause parcel rejection, return, or delivery failure.
