Executive Order 14350 of September 16, 2025
Further Extending the TikTok Enforcement Delay
By the authority vested in me as President by the
Constitution and the laws of the United States of
America, it is hereby ordered:
Section 1. Extension. (a) The enforcement delay
specified in section 2(a) of Executive Order 14166 of
January 20, 2025 (Application of Protecting Americans
from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act to
TikTok), as extended by Executive Order 14258 of April
4, 2025 (Extending the TikTok Enforcement Delay), and
Executive Order 14310 of June 19, 2025 (Further
Extending the TikTok Enforcement Delay), is further
extended until December 16, 2025. During this period,
the Department of Justice shall take no action to
enforce the Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary
Controlled Applications Act (the ``Act'') (Public Law
118-50, Div. H) or impose any penalties against any
entity for any noncompliance with the Act, including
for distributing, maintaining, or updating (or enabling
the distribution, maintenance, or updating of) any
foreign adversary controlled application as defined in
the Act. In light of this direction, even after the
expiration of the above-specified period, the
Department of Justice shall not take any action to
enforce the Act or impose any penalties against any
entity for any conduct that occurred during the above-
specified period or any period prior to the issuance of
this order, including the period of time from January
19, 2025, until the date of this order.
(b) The Attorney General shall take all appropriate
action to issue written guidance to implement the
provisions of subsection (a) of this section.
(c) The Attorney General shall further issue a
letter to each provider stating that there has been no
violation of the statute and that there is no liability
for any conduct that occurred during the above-
specified period, as well as for any conduct from the
effective date of the Act until the date of this order.
(d) Because of the national security interests at
stake and because section 2(d) of the Act vests
authority for investigations and enforcement of the Act
only in the Attorney General, attempted enforcement by
the States or private parties represents an
encroachment on the powers of the Executive. The
Attorney General shall exercise all available authority
to preserve and defend the Executive's exclusive
authority to enforce the Act.
Sec. 2. General Provisions. (a) Nothing in this order
shall be construed to impair or otherwise affect:
(i) the authority granted by law to an executive department or agency, or
the head thereof; or
(ii) the functions of the Director of the Office of Management and Budget
relating to budgetary, administrative, or legislative proposals.
(b) This order shall be implemented consistent with
applicable law and subject to the availability of
appropriations.
(c) This order is not intended to, and does not,
create any right or benefit, substantive or procedural,
enforceable at law or in equity by any party against
the United States, its departments, agencies, or
entities, its officers, employees, or agents, or any
other person.
(d) The costs for publication of this order shall
be borne by the Department of Justice.
(Presidential Sig.)
