Apple's App Store Connect has a new requirement; you must now "let us know whether or not you’re a trader" in order to comply with the European Union's [Digital Services Act](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Services_Act) . ![you need to let us know whether or not you’re a trader](https://i.sstatic.net/Phkgs.png) > To submit new content to the App Store, Apple Books, or Apple Podcasts, you need to let us know whether or not you’re a trader.

What is a **"Trader"** according to the EU DSA? Should developers indicate that they are a trader, or not? What determines if an individual or business App Store Connect account is an EU trader?
