    Dear Charles,

    This is a reminder about our communication from September 2016. As of February 5, 2017, Apple Distribution International will relocate the iTunes, Apple Music, App Store and iBooks Store businesses from Luxembourg to Cork, Ireland. The Luxembourg Branch of Apple Distribution International will cease its operations on February 4.

    Apple has been operating in Ireland since 1980 and now employs nearly 6,000 people. As we continue to expand our operations in Cork, we are moving our iTunes business there and will support content stores and services for more than 100 countries from our campus at Hollyhill.

    Please review the following details and take the appropriate actions.

    Contracts

    Your contracts with Apple Distribution International (CRO Company Number: 470672) will remain unchanged. Your contracts were already transferred automatically by operation of law to Apple Distribution International on September 25, 2016 by the effect of the merger of iTunes S.à r.l. with Apple Distribution International. No action is needed.

    Taxes

    We do not expect to have to deduct or withhold taxes from the payments we make to you. However, applicable laws are always subject to change.

    VAT

    The VAT ID of Apple Distribution International in Ireland is IE9700053D.

    Note to Irish based partners: Apple Distribution International has exporter status under Irish VAT law and is entitled to purchase from you free from a charge of Irish VAT. A copy of the Apple Distribution International authorization from the Revenue Commissioners in this regard is available to you here.

    Invoices

    If your company sends invoices or other documents to customers that include a reference to Apple Distribution International, Luxembourg Branch, note that the Branch will cease its operations on February 4. Removing references to the Luxembourg Branch from your documentation is a logical consequence.

    If your company is currently required to send invoices to Apple Distribution International, starting February 5, 2017, all invoices should be sent to Apple Distribution International in Cork, Ireland at the following address:

    Apple Distribution International
    Internet Software & Services
    
Hollyhill Industrial Estate
    
Hollyhill, Cork
    
Republic of Ireland

    Thank you for your business.

    Best Regards,
    The iTunes Store team
