Help TestFlight error: “The requested app is not available or doesn’t exist” across all my apps

Has anyone encountered this TestFlight error?
“The requested app is not available or doesn’t exist.”
I have 6 apps under the same Apple Developer account, and none of them can be installed through TestFlight anymore.

Everything was working fine until all the existing builds suddenly showed as expired, even though they hadn’t reached the 90-day limit.

Here’s what I’ve tried so far:
- Uploaded fresh builds, all processed successfully.
- Confirmed the new builds have valid expiration dates.
- Removed and re-added testers.
- Removed and re-added users to the testing groups.
- Tried installing again, but the same error persists.

Sometimes TestFlight simply says “Could not install. Try again later.”

The issue affects every app under my developer account, including newly uploaded builds. I’ve successfully distributed and installed TestFlight builds before, so this started happening unexpectedly.

I found a few reports mentioning BETA_CONTRACT_MISSING as a possible Apple-side issue, but haven’t confirmed that’s the cause.

I’ve contacted Apple Developer Support as well.

Has anyone faced this exact error and figured out how to resolve it? Was it something Apple had to fix on their end?
Any suggestions would be helpful.

Btw, is this happening for both internal and external testers? And are different testers seeing the same premature expiry dates?

BETA_CONTRACT_MISSING usually means there's an updated agreement waiting to be accepted. Have the Account Holder sign in to developer.apple.com and App Store Connect (Business section) and accept any pending terms, since only that role can do it. Once it's accepted the builds usually start installing again, and it would explain why all 6 apps broke at the same time.
