Countries to sell paid applications from in Android Market and Apple AppStore.

Question

Paid applications in Android Market can be sold only from a handful of countries. Is it also true of Apple AppStore? From which countries can you sell apps on AppStore? Is there an authoritative list somewhere?

Note: I'm not looking for list of countries in which iTunes is supported, but list of countries from which developer can sell ups.

On the AndroidMarket it works in a way that there's about a 140 countries supported for customers, but only "Merchants in Austria, France, Germany, Netherlands, Spain, U.S. and U.K. can [..] sell applications on Android Market.", see here for source.

Answer 1

Apple has a Support Article up on their website, explaining you how to determine if the iTunes Store is available in your country.

As far as I remember when submitting an application to the store, I could select one, many, or all those countries for which the app should be for sale. For some countries to be selectable, the developer might have to sign a separate contract with Apple for that specific country.
