Copyright & Usage Guide

How to Check If a TikTok Sound Is Copyrighted

Tap the sound name at the bottom of a TikTok video. If it says "Original sound" by the creator, it's usually safe to reuse for personal content. If it's a popular song by a known artist, assume it's copyrighted.

TikTok's own Commercial Music Library (CML) contains royalty-free tracks specifically cleared for business use. Look for sounds tagged with "CML" in the app.
