Ratings Update to iTunes Package TV Specification 5.3.4
March 18, 2021
The iTunes Package TV Specification has been updated to include new TV ratings for UK.

If your content has no BBFC rating but is unsuitable for children, use the “Caution” rating. The new values are:
U | Suitable for all ages |
PG | Parental guidance |
12 | Suitable for 12 years and over |
15 | Suitable for 15 years and over |
18 | Suitable for 18 years and over |
The existing rating of Caution is still available.
In addition, a new regional requirements section includes closed captioning regulations for the U.S. and metadata requirements for European countries.
