Ahem, if you are registering from something like India. You will have to fax some documents to them for review. There is no option to even pay online. In fact, this song and dance is so time consuming that, I haven't bothered to register an account myself.

I'm from Brazil. Just fill the form and use any free fax web service. Your CC will be billed on approval.

I have no idea whether you are talking about Apple or Google.

It was for Apple obviously. Only apple can require you to pay $99 and fax them your proof of identity just for running a app on your own device (actually, I no longer remember which document they asked, but I remember I didn't had time or motivation to scan and fax those documents).

There are not documents to scan, there's a form that you have to download and put your credit card info on and fax it.

Still pretty lame to still be faxing payment info in 2012.
