What are the requirements to run Tiktok accounts?

Hey guys!

I’ll cut it straight to the chase. I run a SMMA agency for several years and we focus mainly on IG and FB ads. A client of mine split with their content creation team and wants us to take over their TikTok account and post their content. I have 0 experience with Tiktok and I come to you with some questions.

Some context: My client is from the US and we are located in Germany. The account was created in the US, it’s verified with a US phone number and it has content on it, already.

  1. What do I need to login into this account? Do I need a US proxy or a US sim card considering the account was active in the US so far?
  2. It is bad if I just login normally with our Germany IP?
  3. What’s the easiest way to not get location blocked?
  4. There is something else I should be aware of?

I really appreciate all your answers and knowledge. Thank you in advance.

You need the account’s login credentials and access to whatever method TikTok uses to verify the login, such as the client’s US phone number or linked email. A US proxy or SIM is not required just because you’re in Germany. A first login from a German IP may trigger a security check, not an automatic location block. Before the handoff, have the client confirm the recovery details and be available to pass along any verification code.
