Unable to enroll into the Apple Developer Program

Hello! Every time I attempt to enroll into the program I get hit with one of the following two errors:

Unknown Error Please try again.

Apple ID Issue The region of the Apple ID that's signed in to Settings or System Preferences is different than the region of the Apple ID with which you signed into the Apple Developer app. Sign in to Settings or System Preferences with an Apple ID that has the same region.

I’m very confused by this message because I have never changed the region of my Apple ID - it should be United States.

How can I complete my enrollment?

I'm also getting this error via the Apple Developer App. Checked my apple id and it has the same region as my devices system preferences.

I've seen a lot of these posts online without a resolution so I'll try to post updates here and hopefully others will find it helpful.

Most recent update:

I've been able to successfully complete my application and I was able to pay the subscription fee. Now I'm just waiting for my purchase + application to be processed.

I was able to complete my application by not using the Apple Developer Apps. The iPhone app and the Mac app did not work for me. The online registration process seemed to work for me.

@carlosrobelli how did you get it to refresh after the error?

Any resolutions Please. I am trying on MacBook Pro and it fails when I enter the Personal Information and once I give number and submit it gives Unknown Error.

Give up the developers app and continue the proccess online, here:

https://developer.apple.com/account

Hello everyone!

Here is the solution:

The Solution

If the Apple Developer App don't working for you, try to sign in from the web.
You can go to https://developer.apple.com/enroll/ and there will be an option bellow the Apple Dveloper App option, called Register on the web or Continue on the web.
I did this method and **there was no ID verification **!

So try this.
I hope it helped!

i hate apple this is totally shit they cant process payment i tried with 5-6 cards even from developer app, tried to add payment method in m apple account, and also tried to enroll through web but same they cant process payment and even not providing any response what reason they are unable to process payment ...

Same problem, I've contacted the support and they don't know the reason and they don't know how can I fix. Either web enrollment doesn't work for me.

the same case, i tried different cards, tried all solutions and contacted the support, i m currently in Morocco, maybe thats the reason

Hello @apple support & team, I'm trying to finish up my apple account creation and when I start "Enroll now" I always get this error : "Your enrollment could not be completed. Your enrollment in the Apple Developer Program could not be completed at this time." Please, if anyone can help or guide me througt the step to avoid that ? Thank you.

Did anyone get the solution ?

As in 2024 I am also facing this error in India and its already 2 months connecting with every support of apple with no luck.

I am not option to enroll from web and in App I am getting this error which is completely ridiculous.

I've been trying to enroll for months. I've been an Apple customer since the first iPhone was released, and I don't understand why they don't fix this problem. The worst part is that on the website or the app, they never explain the source of the issue, and this is something basic in computer science. As an IT professional, I would immediately fire whoever programmed such a dull response like a simple "We can't...". They need to provide the reason for the issue so that we can move forward. It’s unbelievable that the enrollment process works so poorly and doesn’t even adhere to basic rules like error handling.
