If your YouTube channel is blocked

What I need to do

If your YouTube channel is blocked, you must identify the reason for the block, such as a copyright strike or Community Guidelines violation, and then follow the specific appeal process for that issue, which may involve completing Copyright School, submitting a counter notification, or filing a channel appeal through YouTube Studio or the designated appeal form. You will need to provide your channel ID and a clear explanation for why you believe the block was an error or what actions you will take to prevent future violations.

  • Determine the Reason for the Block

    • Copyright Strike: This happens when your content infringes on someone else's copyright. You may need to complete Copyright School, get a retraction from the copyright holder, or submit a counter notification.

    • Community Guidelines Strike: This indicates a violation of YouTube's Community Guidelines, which cover various topics like harassment, hate speech, and dangerous content. Channel Termination: A more severe action, usually resulting from multiple strikes or a very serious violation of terms of service.

  • Appeal the Decision

    • Channel or Account Appeal: You can appeal a termination through YouTube Studio by clicking "Begin Review" or by using the provided appeal form, according to YouTube Help. Provide Necessary Information: You will need your Channel ID and a contact email address.

    • Explain Your Case: Clearly state why you believe the termination was a mistake, or if you did violate a guideline, acknowledge the error and explain how you will prevent it from happening again, notes Quora.

    • Use the Official Form: Ensure you use the official form or the link provided by YouTube to submit your appeal, as a simple email may not be sufficient.

  • Monitor Your Appeal

    • Check Status: You can check the status of your appeal in YouTube Studio. Receive Notification: You will be notified by email about the outcome of your appeal. Finality: If your appeal is rejected, the decision may be final, although sometimes contacting Team YouTube on Twitter can be a last resort.
  • Important Considerations

    • Time Limits: There may be a time limit for submitting an appeal, so act quickly. Multiple Attempts: There might be a limit on how many times you can appeal a single channel termination.

Review by a Human: Your appeal will be reviewed by a human reviewer at YouTube.
