If your company is a registered company such as a Corporation (Corp., Inc.), Limited Liability Company (LLC, LC, Ltd. Co.), or a legal entity (GmbH, AG, KG, oHg, etc.), you are required to enroll as an Organization.

Organizations enrolling in the Apple Developer Program will need:

• Legal Entity Status

  To enter into the legal requirements and obligations of the Apple Developer Program, your organization must be recognized as a legal entity (e.g., a corporation, limited partnership, or limited liability company). For programs you distribute on the App Store, the legal entity name will display as the developers. Example: ABC Company, Inc. is the seller.

• A D‑U‑N‑S Number

  You must have a D‑U‑N‑S Number so that Apple can verify your organization’s identity and legal entity status. Learn more about what a DUNS Number is and how you can get one for your company.

• Legal Binding Authority

  To bind your company to legal agreements, you must have legal authority. You must be the owner/founder of the organization, a member of the executive team, a senior project lead, or have legal authority handed to you by a senior employee.

• A Website

  Your company will need a public website, and your domain name should be owned by the company.
