Is it possible to determine the exact date of creation of an Apple ID? Is there an official way?



It would be nice to know the exact time as well.

          You can request a copy of your data that Apple has (Apple ID account and Device Information) by visiting https://privacy.apple.com. It can take up to 7 days to prepare the report and you will have up to 14 days once it's ready to download it before it's deleted.



          You will need to login with your Apple ID, password and two-factor authentication token. You will be able to select what data you wish to download.



          Select Data to be downloaded...

          You will then receive an email from Apple confirming the request...

          An indirect way is to search your email archive for messages from appleid@id.apple.com asking for verification of the email address you gave when creating the id.

          There is no way of knowing the exact data when the Apple ID was created:




          As far as I know you can't. You can log into your account via the
          Store > View Account menu option and see what the earliest purchase
          that shows on the account is, that should give you a rough idea of the
          date, but I don't that there is anywhere that you can see the actual
          date.

          If you are looking for an official answer this discussion is better:
          https://discussions.apple.com/thread/7550913



          Apple recommended this answer:




          I don't think there is a way to find that out. However, you can find
          the date of the first purchase you made with the ID: Store > View
          Account, and look at the end of your Purchase History to find the
          oldest item.
