Hello,
I am an Apple Developer Program member with an Individual account in South Korea.
I am preparing to launch an iOS app with auto-renewable subscriptions and have configured App Store Connect and RevenueCat.
However, my Paid Apps Agreement remains in "Pending User Info" status because Apple requires one of the following:
- Business Registration Number (BRN) with a recent English Business Registration Certificate or
- NTS Registration Number with a recent Registration Certificate
The problem is that:
- I am an individual developer, not a company.
- I do not have a Business Registration Number.
- I do not have an NTS Registration Number.
- According to the information I found, the NTS Registration Number seems to be intended for non-profit organizations rather than individual developers.
Current status:
- Apple Developer account: Individual
- Country: South Korea
- Paid Apps Agreement: Pending User Info
- RevenueCat subscriptions configured correctly
- App Store Connect subscription products created successfully
- RevenueCat logs show: "None of the products registered in the RevenueCat dashboard could be fetched from App Store Connect"
My questions are:
- Can an Individual Apple Developer account in South Korea sell paid apps or auto-renewable subscriptions without a business registration?
- If yes, what tax document should be submitted to complete the Republic of Korea Tax Form?
- Has anyone successfully activated Paid Apps Agreement in South Korea as an individual developer without registering a business?
Any guidance or real-world experience would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
