Download sample project and required files from GitHub: https://github.com/WhatsApp/stickers/tree/master/iOS

Then create a sticker pack using below code:

let stickerPack = StickerPack(identifier: "identifier",
name: "sticker pack name", 
publisher: "sticker pack publisher", 
trayImageFileName: "tray image file name", 
publisherWebsite: "publisher website URL", 
privacyPolicyWebsite: "privacy policy website URL", 
licenseAgreementWebsite: "license agreement website URL")

Add stickers to sticker pack:

stickerPack.addSticker(contentsOfFile: "file name of sticker image", 
emojis: ["array of emojis"])

Call below method to import your sticker pack to Whatsapp:

stickerPack.sendToWhatsApp { completed in
// Called when the sticker pack has been wrapped in a form that WhatsApp 
// can read and WhatsApp is about to open.
}

You have to add LSApplicationQueriesSchemes in Info.plist file:

<key>LSApplicationQueriesSchemes</key>
<array>
    <string>whatsapp</string>
</array>

Also, There is some limitations and predefined syntax you have to use, Read more about creating whatsapp stickers:

To do that, you need to build a separate keyboard extension with the stickers so that in WhatsApp they will be sent as images or GIFs.
