After flagging a Google review for policy violation, the review will enter Google’s moderation process. Typically, it takes anywhere from 3 to 10 business days for Google to review and decide on the flagged content. However, this timeline isn’t guaranteed and can vary depending on the complexity of the case or volume of reported content. If the review is clearly in violation of guidelines, it might be removed sooner. Businesses should keep track of flagged reviews and consider following up through Google Business Profile support or via the support forum if there’s no response after a reasonable time.
