Note: This list was last updated on 9.26.16 and is very much a work-in-progress.
I have noticed a lot of confusion about how to add listings to Apple Maps for different countries. While you can do so via the “Report a Problem” screen on Apple Maps, all businesses should also make sure their data is up to date on the relevant data supplier for their country. Failing to do this could mean that your business info gets overwritten when Apple gets a new update from a supplier whose data it trusts more than the data you have submitted.
I have put together this list of data vendors by country to help make it easier to figure out where to go to update your data:

Still missing Brazil…
Rafael, I haven’t figured out where they are getting their Brazilian data from. It may be Acxiom, but I am not sure.
New Zealand?
What a debacle!! Our Australian business had the correct address under Google but Apple info is at least three years old – yes really. There is no way to correct the detail as there is no country drop down for Australia on their correction form. Any smaller company would go out of business if it treated it customers like TomTom.
Australia?
Australia now powered by Yelp
what about Turkey ?
Not sure. They are taking reviews from Yelp for Turkey.
hi, does anyone know about Israel listing options?
Factual is the most likely supplier and perhaps Acxiom
Hi, how to register the business on the Apple map for Indonesia
Not sure, but I think you will need to get your business listed in TomTom. Mapping data for Indonesia is provided by http://www.bakosurtanal.go.id/j but not sure they provide business listings. My Indonesian needs some work 🙂
What about Saudi Arabia?
indonesian ???
Hi, I noticed my business was not listed on apple maps. I did the “report a problem” from my iPhone 6s and reported my business. I also updated the address on my Yelp listing. How long will it take before the info is updated?
Hey Nicole, just saw this. LMK if you are still having a problem.
Great list – thanks for sharing Andrew 🙂
Thanks Andy. I’ll try to keep this up to date.
Amazing list https://worldfamousmarketing.ca/
