JAKARTA - TikTok Shop service has been officially discontinued. In this regard, the Minister of Cooperatives and SMEs (Menkop UKM) Teten Masduki said, TikTok Shop can operate again in Indonesia as long as it meets various requirements as e-commerce.
Teten assessed that the cessation of the operation of TikTok Shop in Indonesia yesterday was because the platform had not yet had an e-commerce permit.
"It's good if you make new ones, they can also reopen their TikTok Shops in Indonesia, which they have been closing because the permits are not allowed to sell yet," Teten told reporters after being met at Smesco Indonesia, Jakarta, Thursday, October 5.
He added that there are a number of conditions that must be met by TikTok so that they can return to operation in Indonesia.
"They are representative offices, they can make TikTok Shop again here, they must form a legal entity in Indonesia, here they must apply for a license and must follow the Regulation of the Minister of Trade (Permendag) Number 31 of 2023," he said.

With the closure of the TikTok Shop, Teten confirmed that the government does not want to kill the TikTok business, but seeks to enforce regulations against unlicensed platforms.
"All business actors in Indonesia, including the global platform, must follow the rules of the Indonesian government," he concluded.
As previously reported, TikTok Indonesia has officially stopped buying and selling transactions on the TikTok Shop service since Wednesday, October 4 at 17.00 WIB. This step is in response to government regulations that prohibit social media from selling.
