Apple Developer Membership expired on 2026-10-15, renewed on 2026-10-17 23:11 (UTC+8)

Till 2026-10-19 10:00 AM (UTC+8), App Store Connect still shows “Membership Expired”, and my app has not been recovered as available on App Store now.

According to https://developer.apple.com/help/account/membership/renewal/, "If you renew after your membership expires, your renewal will activate when you complete the renewal process and any free apps you had available for download will become available again within 24 hours.", my app should be available within 24 hours.

Below are the similar issues,

I hope Apple Developer Support can apply the same fix to my account.

Thank you.

Problem Solved. According to the Apple Developer Support team, an systematic issue caused the Apple Developer Program License to have an abnormal expiry date. Now licenses released again with fixed expiry date.

Same issue here. My membership expired on October 15, 2026, and I renewed it on October 17, 2026. The Apple Developer website and app show my membership as active until October 17/18, 2027, and the Program License Agreement (issued October 14, 2026) shows as accepted on October 17

However, more than 10 days later, App Store Connect still shows “Developer Program Membership Expired” and asks me to accept the updated license agreement, and my free apps (status “Ready for Distribution”) are still not available on the App Store

I believe my account was affected by the same systemic issue with the license expiry date. I tried to contact Developer Support, but the callback failed and both the phone and email contact forms now return “There was a problem processing your request
