Apple has announced some upcoming App Store tax and pricing changes for select countries.

When taxes or foreign exchange rates change, we sometimes need to update prices on the App Store in certain regions and/or adjust your proceeds. In the next few days, your proceeds will be adjusted in the following regions and will be calculated based on the tax-exclusive price.

● Cameroon: New value-added tax of 19.25%

● Zimbabwe: New value-added tax of 14.5%

Prices of apps and in-app purchases (excluding auto-renewable subscriptions) on the App Store will increase in these regions.

● Germany: Value-added tax rate reversion to 19% after temporary decrease to 16%. Prices on the App Store will not change.

● Republic of Korea: Prices of alternative tiers for apps and in-app purchases (excluding auto-renewable subscriptions) will be adjusted to allow for additional locally relevant pricing conventions.

Developers can change the price of their apps and in-app purchases from App Store Connect.
