Here are the countries that have bans on TikTok

A growing number of countries in North America, Europe and Asia-Pacific have banned the popular video-sharing app TikTok from government devices as privacy and cybersecurity concerns grow. TikTok is owned by the Chinese company Bytedance. Its CEO is facing a grilling from U.S. congressional lawmakers. It has long maintained that it does not share data with the Chinese government. It also disputes accusations that it collects more user data compared to other social media companies, and insists that it runs independently, with its own leadership team. Despite TikTok’s claims, many countries around the world remain cautious about the platform and its ties to China.
