About Developer Program enrollment

I’d like to ask a question regarding Apple Developer Program enrollment for an organization.

I’m currently helping a Singapore-based company register an Apple Developer account. During the enrollment process, Apple requires identity verification for the Account Holder / contact person, including uploading a personal ID document.

My situation is:

  1. The company entity is registered in Singapore
  2. The Account Holder / contact person is based in Mainland China
  3. A valid Mainland China ID card is available

I have a friend who successfully completed a similar enrollment in 2024 using a Mainland China ID for identity verification. However, I’ve recently heard some mixed information suggesting this might no longer be supported, which has caused some confusion.

I’d like to ask if anyone has recent experience (success or failure), or can confirm whether it is currently acceptable to use a Mainland China ID for Account Holder verification when enrolling a Singapore organization.

Any insights or clarification would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
