Apple Care and Mac Air

If I purchase a new Mac Air but decline Apple Care, can Apple Care be purchased separately when I go to pick up the device?

MacBook Pro 14″, macOS 13.4

Yes, as described in the "Related Article:"

  • In most countries and regions, you can buy AppleCare+ within 60 days of your device purchase. In Japan, you can buy AppleCare+ within 30 days of your device purchase. In China mainland, you can buy AppleCare+ on your device within 7 days of your device purchase or in an Apple Store within 60 days of your device purchase. (At the Apple Store, you'll need to bring your proof of purchase, and we'll inspect the device.)
  • In some countries and regions, you can buy an AppleCare Protection Plan within 1 year of your purchase of an eligible Mac, Apple TV, or other device.
