iOS Test app on device, two differing regions

In order to test an app I am building for a local client I need to get the iOS dev account for $99 obviously.

I have two Apple Ids. One for USA and one for South Africa, where the client is based.

If I get the developer account for the US profile can the app be published by the client under the South African store, when it gets to that point that is.

Do I simply provide the Source Code to the client or would it be simpler for them to get their own account and add me as a developer, not sure how this works for people with Apple IDs for differing regions.

In addition to this question, is it not possible for me to simply test the app on my own iPAD and iPhone without the $99 requirement and when the app is ready to later be added to the clients team on their development account?

You can test you app on a device without having an appropriate profile. All you should do - connect the device, go to Organizer, open Devices tab with your device and press "Use for development".

And about other question, I think it would be better if a client had his own account and connected you to it.

You can only test in simulator, without a payed developer account. But in 99% of cases that's enough. There are very few cases where a device is really needed. Of course the final testing should be done on a real device.

As far as i know you can publish apps from one developer account to the whole world. You do not need multiple accounts for other continents.
