How Long Can a Song Be on TikTok Before Copyright?

When you select music directly from TikTok’s General or Commercial Music Libraries, you can use up to 60 seconds of a copyrighted song without getting a copyright strike. That limit is set by TikTok’s licensing agreements with music rights holders, not by copyright law itself. It applies only when you select audio directly from TikTok’s in-app library and follow the platform’s terms.
