Apple Raises iCloud+ Prices in Eight Countries as the July Price Wave Spreads
Japan, Türkiye, Nigeria and five other markets saw iCloud+ pricing move on July 17, while U.S. storage plans stayed where they were.
Apple expanded its July pricing wave on July 17 by updating iCloud+ rates in eight countries: Egypt, Indonesia, Japan, New Zealand, Nigeria, the Philippines, Türkiye, and Vietnam. The changes appear in Apple’s iCloud+ pricing support document, which is dated July 17, 2026.
The affected markets do not all move by the same amount, but the direction is consistent. According to 9to5Mac’s comparison against the previous pricing table, Japan’s 50 GB plan rose from ¥150 to ¥180, Nigeria’s from ₦900 to ₦1,300, and Türkiye’s from 39.99 TL to 49.99 TL. Apple’s support page now reflects the new current prices for all listed tiers in those countries.
What did not happen is just as important. U.S. iCloud+ pricing did not change, and Apple’s document did not show a broader worldwide reset outside the named markets. That keeps this move narrower than Apple’s June hardware increases and narrower in geography than the Apple Music changes published the same day.
Apple did not publish a standalone explanation on the support page. That means the safest reading is the factual one: iCloud+ became more expensive in a defined set of countries on July 17, and readers should treat the support document as the authoritative current reference for local prices.
