The western state last week became the first in the US to ban the hugely-popular video platform.
TikTok has sued to block the US state of Montana from banning residents from accessing its social media platform.
"We are challenging Montana's unconstitutional TikTok ban to protect our business and the hundreds of thousands of TikTok users in Montana," a spokesperson said in a statement. The company's complaint states that the ban was "unconstitutionally shutting down the forum for speech for all speakers on the app".
TikTok says it has 150m American users. Although the app's user base has expanded in recent years, it is still most popular with teenagers and users in their 20s.
