Abstract: In a previous paper, V'ertesi and the first author used grid-like Heegaard diagrams to define tangle Floer homology, which associates to a tangle $T$ a differential graded bimodule $widetildemathrmCT(T)$. If $L$ is obtained by gluing together $T_1,dotsc,T_m$, then the knot Floer homology $hatmathrmHFK(L)$ of $L$ can be recovered from $widetildemathrmCT(T_1),dotsc,widetildemathrmCT(T_m)$. In the present paper, we prove combinatorially that tangle Floer homology satisfies unoriented and oriented skein relations, generalizing the skein exact triangles for knot Floer homology.
