Removed from Sale after Processing to App Store immediately

app-store

My app is removed from sale before. After the update is approved. I received 3 email for the status within 10 minutes: 1. Processing to App Store 2. Ready for Sale 3. Removed from Sale

The status is changed to Removed from Sale immediately after the Ready for Sale status. I contacted Apple, and she said once an app has been removed from the App Store, it is a multi-step process to return it to the App Store. She asked me to wait and I can do nothing now. However, I waited for more than a week.

Anyone has such experience? Would you please tell me how did you fix it? How long have you been waited for it really can sell in App Store? How do you contact with Apple?

This happens when you have not assigned any countries for the App to be sold at. Go into iTunes Connect --> Your App --> Rights & Pricing --> and make sure you have at least one country set there.

This happened to me because there are no territories the app is available in.

Availability Not Set In iTunes

If you enable one or more territories, the app goes back to 'Ready for Sale' status immediately.

Availability Set in iTunes
