Developers Must Share Phone Number and Address on EU App Store to Meet 'Trader' Requirement Starting in October

Quick Summary:

Apple today reminded developers who plan to distribute apps in the European Union to submit their trader status, a requirement that will see the App Store sharing the address, phone number, and email address of each developer.

The Digital Services Act (DSA) in the European Union requires Apple to verify and display trader contract information for all "traders" who are distributing apps on the ‌App Store‌ in the European Union.

As displaying trader status is a Digital Services Act requirement in the European Union, Apple does not have a choice on implementing the feature.
