Hello, you can add a new first-level category, but you still need to look at the scope of the trademark. The review time for adding Tmall categories is divided into brand assessment (if any) and qualification review. The brand assessment review time is 15 working days, and the qualification review time is 5 working days. You can enter the Merchant Center - Store Management - Brand and Category Project Management—My Brand View the application progress.

Note that not all newly added first-level categories in Tmall online stores can pass the review.

Warm reminder:

(1). If the category can be checked, it is within the investment scope. Just click "Next" to apply.

(2) If the category is displayed and "category to be evaluated" is displayed after checking, then your brand needs to be evaluated by Tmall first. Only after passing the evaluation will it go to the qualification review. If the brand evaluation fails, the addition fails.

(3) If the category that needs to be added is not displayed, it means that there is no investment or the franchise store crosses major categories and cannot be selected.
