Dear Apple Developer Support Team, I am writing to inquire about the process for obtaining approval for the following entitlement in my iOS/macOS app:
<key>com.apple.developer.networking.networkextension</key>
<array>
<string>content-filter-provider</string>
</array>
Specifically, I would like guidance on: The steps required to submit a request for this entitlement. Any necessary documentation or justification that needs to be provided to Apple. Typical review timelines and approval criteria. Any restrictions or compliance requirements associated with this entitlement. Our app intends to implement a content filtering functionality to enhance network security and user safety. We want to ensure full compliance with Apple’s policies and guidelines. Could you please provide detailed instructions or point us to the relevant resources to initiate this approval process? Thank you for your assistance.

There is no approval process for this. Most NE entitlements, including the one for content filters, are available to all (paid) developers.
Note Historically there was an approval process for this but that’s not been the case for almost 10 years now. See Network Extension Framework Entitlements.
There are, however, significant deployment restrictions for content filters on iOS. I cover those in TN3134, which I mentioned in my reply on your previous thread.
Share and Enjoy
