Currently, only individuals with a TikTok Creator account can add Q&A on TikTok.
To be able to switch to a TikTok Creator account, you need to have at least 10k followers, and at least 100k video views in the last 30 days, etc.
Once the Q&A feature is activated, a Q&A icon will appear below your TikTok bio and viewers can ask questions for a posted TikTok video or a live streaming TikTok video.
Creators can answer viewers’ questions through a normal comment response or a video reply.
All the video replies will be aggregated on the Q&A page and be visible to all viewers as a Q&A directory for an easy check.
Switch to the creator account: Go to the TikTok profile page > tap the menu icon on the top right corner > select Manage Account > click Switch to Pro Account > select Creator > choose a category for your creator account > indicate your Gender > tap Done.
Step 2
Add Q&A feature on TikTok: Head back to settings > select Creator tools > tap Q&A > tap Turn on Q&A > then the Q&A icon will be added below your TikTok bio. So viewers can tap the Q&A section, which looks like a question mark, to ask you questions or check the questions responded.

Well, though TikTok’s Q&A feature makes it easier for both viewers and creators to communicate with each other and dive deeper into video content, there is a catch.
For TikTokers without 10k followers and 100k video views in the last 30 days or at an age that is below 18, you won’t be able to switch to the Creator account and use the Q&A feature.
If you live in places other than the US, UK, France, Germany, Spain, or Italy, chances are that you may also not be able to use the Creator account.
