Why the New Ban Date Matters

The original TikTok ban deadline was set for April 4, 2025, giving ByteDance 75 days to divest from TikTok's U.S. operations or face removal from U.S. app stores and potential ISP blocking.

On April 4, 2025, President Trump signed an extension, pushing the deadline to June 19, 2025. Then on June 19, 2025, he signed another executive order granting a 90-day extension. The current deadline is:

Thursday, 17 September 2025

This means TikTok could still be banned if ByteDance does not sell its U.S. operations to an approved American buyer by then.

The ban would legally require Apple and Google to remove TikTok from their app stores, and U.S. internet providers could be ordered to block access entirely. If you're a creator or user, the clock is still ticking.

We'll continue tracking legal changes and update this site immediately if anything shifts again.
