President Trump Prolongs TikTok Sale Deadline by 75 Days
ByteDance has been given more time to complete the divestiture of its U.S. operations as negotiations continue.
President Donald Trump has authorized an executive order that allows ByteDance, the Chinese parent company of TikTok, a 75-day extension to sell off its U.S. operations.
This action postpones a possible ban on the widely used video-sharing platform, which was originally scheduled to be implemented on April 5, 2025. The extension offers more time for discussions focused on reorganizing TikTok's U.S. operations under different ownership.
