How to untag yourself from Facebook photo tags



In order to remove a tag from a post you've been tagged in, click on the "V-shaped"   icon at the top right of the post and select Remove Tag.

How to remove tags from multiple Facebook posts at once

  1. Go to your activity log
  2. Click Photos in the left column
  3. Click to check the box to the left of the posts you'd like to remove a tag from
  4. Click Report/Remove Tags at the top of the page
  5. Click Untag Photos to confirm
Keep in mind that Removed tags will no longer appear on the post or photo, but the 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 News Feed or search results. To permanently delete that photo from Facebook, ask the person who posted it to remove it.
