We are trying to notarize a MacOS app on our paid developer business account for the past 3 weeks. After many hours of processing, we received the following error:
Team is not yet configured for notarization. Please contact Developer Programs Support at developer.apple.com under the topic Development and Technical / Other Development or Technical Questions.", "statusCode": 7000,
Has anyone else experienced this issue and if so, how was it resolved?
We have reached out to support to ask them to enable this configuration and received no reply.
Any advice or guidance would be appreciated.

Hi everyone!!
I am submitting an App for Notarization for the first time, I have several attempts, some returned invalid and other show In Progress for more than 8 hours.
Is that normal?
I addressed the issues that make the other ones Invalid.
Thanks so much!
Multiple notarization submissions have been stuck at
"In Progress" status for over 2 days with no resolution
or error:
4996643b-4512-4025-9648-028fbafca82f - submitted Jan 18
b6db6cd0-dad7-4a8e-b1fc-379467c1086d - submitted Jan 17
88f269c1-56ea-4404-98ba-edbe9a05b3d2 - submitted Jan 19
No logs available (notarytool log returns "not yet available"). The submissions were uploaded successfully and received submission IDs.
Is there a known issue with the notarization service?

Hello,
I'm experiencing a persistent issue where all my notarization submissions remain stuck in "In Progress" indefinitely. This has been happening for the past several days, affecting multiple submissions.
Environment:
macOS 26.2 (Build 25C56)
Using xcrun notarytool submit for submissions
Team ID: M3FN25UQK2
Timeline of the issue:
Starting from January 2nd, 2026, my submissions began getting stuck in "In Progress"
As of January 6th, I have 6+ submissions that have been "In Progress" for 24-72+ hours
Prior to this, notarization was working normally (I have multiple "Accepted" submissions from January 1st)
What I've tried:
Verified my Developer ID Application certificate is valid and properly installed
Checked Apple Developer System Status page (shows "Operational")
Verified code signatures using codesign -vvv --deep --strict
Contacted Apple Developer Support (no response yet)
Checked my Apple Developer account for any pending agreements or warnings (none found)
Is there any known issue affecting notarization processing, or could my Team ID be rate-limited/flagged? Any guidance on how to resolve this would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

I'm trying to notarize an application for the first time & it's stuck for more than 24 hours now. I ended up submitting the same app more than 5 times, but all are stuck in waiting state.
There is no visibility into what's happening & whenever i check the status it just shows as "In Progress".
How can i expedite this process ?
So we are building a Tauri app and I have no been able to get our App to be Notarized using Developer ID.
We have a ticket open for 3 months now. Can anyone help me out here?

Hi,
I read that notarization should be fairly quick. I thought that it was stuck, so I ended up sending a few submissions of the same app. I was wondering if you'd able to tell me the status of my latest submission (id: a094f93d-8bb2-47fe-a411-b6e357456ec7). It has been saying "In Progress" for over 3 hours now. If it is held for in-depth review, would you be able to tell me what's the wait period is like?
Thanks!

Error from notarytool log:
status: Rejected
statusCode: 7000
statusSummary: Team is not yet configured for notarization. Please contact Developer Programs Support at developer.apple.com under the topic Development and Technical / Other Development or Technical Questions.
What I’ve verified:
Developer ID certificate is valid and trusted
Apple Worldwide Developer Relations Certification Authority chain is complete
App is properly code-signed with hardened runtime
Using notarytool with valid credentials (submission uploads successfully)
Account Holder role with full permissions
Existing support case: 102808512705
I’ve had this issue for over a week with no resolution. The error message says “Team is not yet configured for notarization” which suggests something needs to be enabled on Apple’s side. Has anyone encountered this and found a resolution?
These have been stuck in progress for a long time. Usually this process is fairly quick for this app:
id: 92caae7f-1796-4928-bb35-72f5f2667786
id: 3645e93f-a8ac-4826-8a4a-690f980dde8e
id: 3645e93f-a8ac-4826-8a4a-690f980dde8e
What can be done, it is holding back deployments :(

Notarization
Hi,
we are sending MacOS apps packaged in a ZIP archive or DMG disk image to the Notary Service.
Before we send the app for notarization, we check the code signature via command
codesign -vvv --deep --strict /path/to/app_or_bundle
The result is positive and it does not provide any gaps.
(And yes, we are following the inside out code signing approach, mentioned at Using the codesign Tool's --deep Option Correctly)
Unfortunately, the result of the Notary service provided that one file has no signature, which was not detected by the signature verification command.
The path of the binary was in
<app_name>.app.zip/<app_name>.app/Contents/Resources/inst/<binary>
How I can be verify like a the Notary service does it on our side?
Best regards,
Stefan
Hello, We are currently using Apple Notarization (notarytool) for distributing a macOS app, and we are experiencing very long notarization times for large app bundles.
[Issue]
For apps with large binary sizes, notarization consistently takes around 3.5 to 4.5 hours from submission to completion.
This delay is causing practical issues in our release pipeline, especially when:
A hotfix or urgent update is required
Multiple builds must be notarized in a short time
CI/CD-based distribution is expected to complete within a predictable timeframe
[Environment]
Platform: macOS
Notarization method: notarytool
Distribution: Outside Mac App Store
App size: 100 GB~ (compressed ZIP)
Signing: Hardened Runtime enabled, codesigned correctly
Submission status: Successfully accepted, but processing time is very long
[What we have confirmed]
The notarization eventually succeeds (no failures)
Re-submitting the same build shows similar processing times
Network upload itself completes normally; the delay is in Apple-side processing
Smaller apps complete notarization much faster
[Questions]
Is a 3–4+ hour notarization time expected behavior for large macOS apps?
Are there recommended best practices to reduce notarization processing time for large binaries?
For example, splitting components, adjusting packaging, or specific signing strategies
Is there any official guidance or limitation regarding notarization queueing or processing based on app size?
Are there known service-side delays or regional differences that could affect processing time?
Any insight or confirmation would be greatly appreciated, as this directly impacts our production release workflow.
Thank you.
