We’re making updates to the Taiwan storefront of the App Store following constructive discussions with the Taiwan Fair Trade Commission. These changes reflect our ongoing commitment to providing developers with a thriving marketplace and ensuring the App Store remains the safest, most trusted platform for users. We will continue to equip developers with the tools, resources, and support they need to build, grow, and scale successful businesses on the App Store.
Apple previously adopted the 26 percent commission rate in Japan and the European Union. Apple also negotiated a 25 percent commission in China after discussions with China’s State Administration for Market Regulation.
