Apple Developer Account for an Iranian Company

Hi All,


As it is evident from the title above, I'm wondering how can we register an Apple Developer Account for our company in Iran? The reason I'm asking this question is, US Sanctions against Iran has been lifted and Iran is no longer under those sanctions. Therefore I thought that from now on we can publish our apps with the name of our firm.


I'm thanking you all in advance for any input.


Regards

Did you happen to read areas within this section

http://www.apple.com/legal/more-resources/gtc.html

as to how the implementation of these agreements apply?

• OFAC IRANIAN GENERAL LICENSE NO. D-1

On Febraury 7, 2014, OFAC issued Iranian General License No. D-1, authorizing the exportation or reexportation, directly or indirectly, from the United States or by U.S. persons, wherever located, to persons in Iran of "certain services, software, and hardware incident to personal communications". General License No. D-1 enumerates certain categories authorized for export to non-prohibited end-users and end-uses in Iran. Some Apple goods and Apple software fall into these categories. For scope and further details, see General License D-1 and the Annex to General License D-1, available from OFAC's Iran Sanctions Resource Center at http://www.treasury.gov/resource-center/sanctions/Programs/pages/iran.aspx.


You may wish to contact Apple Legal for details in regard to any aspects

of how variation of the other agreements and developer rules may apply

for products intended for specific online App Store, iTunes, and other, as

these vary by region & country. There may be additional laws to consider.

Not sure if your question can be answered to the degree of clarity in full

legal terms in a developer discussions area, unless the principals reply.

To contact Apple Legal may be a practical idea, to discuss this directly.


Good luck in this matter! 🙂
