Did you receive an email or see a notification banner from Apple stating that you should now enter your trader status in App Store Connect to align with the EU Digital Services Act?
Apple has introduced new requirements for apps made available in the European Union (EU) to comply with the EU's Digital Services Act.
These requirements apply to any "trader", which is "any natural person, or any legal person irrespective of whether privately or publicly owned, who is acting, including through any person acting in his or her name or on his or her behalf, for purposes relating to his or her trade, business, craft or profession".
If you’re not sure if this definition of a trader applies to you, we recommend that you consult with a legal professional.
Apple asks traders to provide a business address, phone number, and email address to be posted on your App Store product page. We recommend that you avoid providing personal information and specifically provide business information only.
What if I don’t have a business address / phone number / email address?
Setting up contact accounts for your business is fairly easy. This could include obtaining a P.O. Box address through your local Post Office or using a business address service, registering a business phone number through an online number service, or creating a new email account with your preferred email provider.
