Membership renewed, still shows expired; notarization fails with 403 "agreement missing or expired" - launch blocked, case unanswered for a week

Requesting staff review. Team ID: RMHZ6VXS4C (individual, Account Holder, India). Case ID: 103000814312.

What happened

• My Apple Developer Program membership lapsed. I renewed it on 18 October 2026.

• developer.apple.com/account → Membership details now shows the renewal: Renewal date October 18, 2027, annual fee US$99. So the renewal is recorded on my account.

• Even so, App Store Connect still shows "Your Apple Developer Program membership has expired," and the agreement banner that used to be there disappeared without anything to accept. App Store Connect → Business → Agreements lists no agreements at all.

• Notarization has failed the whole time. Every notarytool call returns:

  HTTP status code: 403. A required agreement is missing or has expired. This request requires an in-effect agreement that has not been signed or has expired.

  This happens with xcrun notarytool history as well as submit, using an app-specific password and the Team ID above. Last checked 23 October 2026.

What I have checked

• The US$99 renewal was charged on 18 October 2026.
• I am the Account Holder, and there is no pending agreement to accept anywhere on developer.apple.com/account or in App Store Connect.
• My Developer ID Application certificate for this team is valid; code signing works, only notarization is refused.
• I corrected my membership address (city/state) on 23 October in case an identity check was holding the renewal.

Impact

I distribute a macOS app outside the App Store under Developer ID. Without notarization, new users get Gatekeeper's "Apple could not verify" block, so I am shipping unnotarized builds as a stopgap and my launch is on hold. I emailed Developer Support a week ago (case above) and have had no reply; the contact form offers no phone or callback option for India.

Ask

Could someone on the Developer Program team check why this team's membership shows as renewed on the account page but expired for App Store Connect and notarization, and push it through, or tell me what is still missing on my side? Happy to provide the receipt and logs.
