You can create a new account with Douyin, but you&#8217;ll be given a completely new account, and will have different content (only the one published in China).<\/p>\n<p>But don&#8217;t worry, there&#8217;s still a way to access TikTok from China.<\/p>\n<nav class=\"indexsdc\">\n<h2>Table of contents<\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li><a href=\"#accedere-a-tiktok-1\">How do I access the international version of TikTok from China?<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#accedere-a-tiktok-2\">What is a VPN?<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#accedere-a-tiktok-3\">Which VPN would you recommend for China?<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#accedere-a-tiktok-4\">How should I prepare before I arrive in China?<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#accedere-a-tiktok-5\">How can I login to TikTok from China?<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/nav>\n<h2 id=\"accedere-a-tiktok-1\">How do I access the international version of TikTok from China?<\/h2>\n<p><strong><!--more--><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>To access TikTok, or almost any <a href=\"https:\/\/www.saporedicina.com\/english\/apps-blocked-china-access\/\">app blocked in China<\/a> (Instagram, WhatsApp, Facebook, among many others) you&#8217;ll need a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.saporedicina.com\/english\/best-vpn-china\/\">VPN that works in China<\/a>. <\/p>\n<h2 id=\"accedere-a-tiktok-2\">What is a VPN?<\/h2>\n<p>Without going too much into the technical details, a VPN is a software that will mask your IP address and allow you to access web pages or apps, even in countries where they are blocked, such as China. <\/p>\n<p>Note that a VPN will not offer you internet access; to connect to the internet you&#8217;ll always need a wifi connection (for example at home or in a hotel) or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.saporedicina.com\/english\/china-sim-cards\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">a SIM card with data access<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>Rather, once you&#8217;re connected to the internet, you can activate your VPN to improve the security of your connection and access apps and websites that would be inaccessible, without the help of a VPN. <\/p>\n<h2 id=\"accedere-a-tiktok-3\">Which VPN would you recommend for China?<\/h2>\n<p>This is an important question considering that the majority of VPNs don&#8217;t work in China. At the moment, here at SDC <a href=\"https:\/\/www.saporedicina.com\/english\/expressvpn-china\/\">we recommend ExpressVPN<\/a>, <\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Easy to install and use.<\/li>\n<li>Works in China.<\/li>\n<li>Offers one of the fastest VPN connections.<\/li>\n<li>Reasonable price.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2 id=\"accedere-a-tiktok-4\">How should I prepare before I arrive in China?<\/h2>\n<p>If you want to use a VPN in China and are not an expert in technology (or just don&#8217;t have too much time to lose), then our advice is to download and install the VPN app that you choose before arriving in China. <\/p>\n<p>Why?<\/p>\n<p>First of all because <a href=\"https:\/\/www.saporedicina.com\/english\/unblock-google-china\/\">Google Play is also blocked in China<\/a>, so if you have an Android device and arrive in China without a VPN, you&#8217;ll find yourself in a situation where you won&#8217;t be able to download any apps (at least not using Google Play).<\/p>\n<p>The situation is not much better if you have an iPhone since many apps are blocked and not available from China. <\/p>\n<p>So it&#8217;s much better to act ahead and install the VPN a few days before entering the country. <\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re reading this article too late, or are already in China and haven&#8217;t yet installed a VPN,  you can read our article about how to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.saporedicina.com\/english\/download-vpn-china\/\" >download a VPN from China<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>The procedure is a little bit more complicated but certainly not impossible!<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"accedere-a-tiktok-5\">How can I login to TikTok from China?<\/h2>\n<p>The only thing that changes, regarding another country is that after connecting to the internet you have to activate your VPN. If in the past it wasn&#8217;t such an easy thing to do, these days, with the most common VPNs all you have to do is open the app and click on the activation button.<\/p>\n<p>Once the VPN is activated and works, you can then access TikTok and other sites blocked in China.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Important<\/strong>: TikTok checks your cell&#8217;s SIM card at startup and if you are using a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.saporedicina.com\/english\/china-sim-cards\/\">Chinese SIM<\/a> it will block the access.<\/p>\n<p>To <strong>use TikTok with a Chinese SIM card<\/strong> you must follow these simple steps:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Close TikTok<\/li>\n<li>Remove or deactivate the Chinese SIM card<\/li>\n<li>Connect to a Wifi network<\/li>\n<li>Activate your VPN<\/li>\n<li>Start TikTok&#8217;s app<\/li>\n<li>Insert or activate your Chinese SIM<\/li>\n<li>Use TikTok without restrictions<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2 id=\"accedere-a-tiktok-6\">Alternatives to TikTok in China<\/h2>\n<p>As was already said at the beginning of this article, the most obvious alternative to TikTok is Douyin, or the original version (and in Chinese) of the app!<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately the majority of Western social networks like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.saporedicina.com\/english\/access-instagram-china\/\">Instagram<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.saporedicina.com\/english\/unblock-facebook-messenger-china\/\">Facebook<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.saporedicina.com\/english\/how-to-access-youtube-in-china\/\">Youtube<\/a>, etc; are also blocked in China.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some other apps that aren&#8217;t blocked in China (they&#8217;re all Chinese): <\/p>\n<ul class=\"space-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.saporedicina.com\/english\/how-to-use-wechat-or-weixin\/\">WeChat (also called Weixin)<\/a>: This is an app that represents a combination of Whatsapp, Facebook, Paypal, etc. In practice, with WeChat you can do a little bit of everything (except pasta)!<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.weibo.com\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Weibo<\/a>: is a &#8220;Chinese <a href=\"https:\/\/www.saporedicina.com\/english\/tweet-from-china\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter<\/a>&#8220;.
