Tomato apical stunt viroid is primarily transmitted mechanically through contaminated tools, hands, and plant-to-plant contact. It can also spread through grafting and vegetative propagation. While it has been detected on tomato seed surfaces, evidence for seed transmission is inconsistent and is generally considered to be very low to uncertain.
