the business license is the legal document for industrial and commercial enterprises and individual operators to carry out production and business activities, and the format is uniformly prescribed by the state administration for industry and commerce. For the merchants who want to open a small shop in Tik Tok, besides the business license, they also need trademarks and other qualifications. Tik Tok offers two channels for selling goods: a small shop in Tik Tok and a shop window.

Tik Tok store is a store directly opened on the vibrato platform, and each store needs an independent business license. The merchandise window needs to be linked to the merchant's third-party stores, such as Taobao, Tmall or JD.COM. This means that if a merchant wants to open more than one small shop in Tik Tok, he must have more than one corresponding business license.
