Trump extends TikTok sale deadline by another 75 days
The Independent
|April 05, 2025
President Donald Trump has extended the deadline for TikTok to find a US buyer by an additional 75 days to prevent the popular social media app from going dark in the United States.
“My Administration has been working very hard on a Deal to SAVE TIKTOK, and we have made tremendous progress,” Mr Trump wrote on Truth Social. “The Deal requires more work to ensure all necessary approvals are signed, which is why I am signing an Executive Order to keep TikTok up and running for an additional 75 days.”
On his first day in office, Mr Trump delayed the app’s ban via an executive order, giving the Chinese-based owner ByteDance until today to find a US buyer.
The president held a White House meeting this week to discuss potential offers with advisers and vice-president JD Vance. The administration was reportedly nearing a TikTok deal but China halted the breaks on it after the president implemented more tariffs on China.
