When you remove a tag, remember:

  • When you remove a tag from someone else's story, the link to your profile will be removed. Photos from previously shared Stories may contain a sticker indicating that you were once tagged.
  • That tag will no longer appear on the post or photo, but that post or photo is still visible to the audience it's shared with.
  • People may be able to view the post or photo in places like Feed or search results.
To remove the post or photo from Facebook, you can ask the person who posted it to take it down.
