Possible to Limit the Countries an iOS Application Is Released To

Possible to limit the countries an iOS application is released to?

Yes, you can control which App Stores you app is sold in. This can be done in iTunes Connect.

First, choose your app from your App Dashboard. Next, look for "Rights and Pricing" in the top right corner.

Next, scroll down. You will see a link to sell in specific countries.

After clicking on that link, you will be able to select which stores your app is for sale in.

Distribute iOS app for specific region/territory

Yes, of course you can enable/disable (make your app available for) specific regions (countries).

As you want to disable you app for Portugal...

Portugal is listed in territory list in iTune account for app. Just uncheck (remove tickmark) for that country.

Look at this snapshot:

Here is more detailed answer (how you can see territories/list) -

Can restrict in-app purchases for certain countries?

No , You can't specially restrict In app purchase for certain countries. There have only way to do using app release restriction for certain countries. Please check iTunes -> Rights and Pricing > Select specific territories for app release restriction for certain countries.

How much time does it take after updating country availability in app store

Well there isn't any specific time constraint limit, set/committed by Apple for this (or any other) process. The time they take to process you update, depends upon rush/queue of application submission and updates on store.

There is a small window of hope, provided by Apple, if you've an emergency or urgency to update your app (country list) on store.

Send a request to Apple using your developer account and contact CSR team. They will definitely listen you and consider your request.

I hope this may help you...
