# Ad Rejection Reasons

Review reasons for an ad rejection.

## Discussion

Ads require approval by Apple. While in review, your [`Ad`](/documentation/apple_ads/Ad) is on hold. After approval, the [`AdServingStatus`](/documentation/apple_ads/AdServingStatus) changes to `RUNNING` unless you schedule it to start on a specific date or [`Update an Ad`](/documentation/apple_ads/Update-an-Ad) status to `PAUSED` while in review.

> Note:
> In <doc://com.apple.appleads/documentation/Apple_Ads/apple-search-ads-campaign-management-api-4#49> release, all previously rejected Today tab ad creatives were `PAUSED` and resubmitted for re-review. You need to update the status to `ENABLED` after the re-review. See ``doc://com.apple.appleads/documentation/apple_ads/Update-an-Ad``.

Use [`Find Ad Creative Rejection Reasons`](/documentation/apple_ads/Find-Ad-Creative-Rejection-Reasons) or [`Get Ad Creative Rejection Reasons`](/documentation/apple_ads/Gets-a-product-page-reason) to look up rejection reasons. See [`ProductPageReason`](/documentation/apple_ads/ProductPageReason) for rejection reason descriptions.
