I am developing an app for a company interested on having this app installed in 700 Ipads.
Unfortunately this company is not based in the USA and so using app store and B2B is not an option.
Is there a way for buying 4 enterprise licences, for e.g.? If so, does anyone know how to manage all those certificates in xcode?
Thank you
Apple will not let you just go out and buy several Enterprise Licenses. The approval process requires a fair amount of paperwork to prove that you are a legitimate company for even a single license.
If all of the iPads are owned by one company you could just set them up with their own enterprise license and that should be all you need. It would cover all 700.

this is rather odd for stack overflow, as its not programming. I didn't know where else to go, apple devforums are.. ahh, anyway,
I have created an app, for a company and myself too, its a reference application and hence not tied to any company servers or even my server, think of it as an educational app.
The app is available on AppStore, however, I wanted to offer it to a company, that is not in the list of countries that have Volume Purchase Program.
I wanted to know what are my options here, I want to assume (although I do not know) that the company does have an enterprise iOS developer's license.
In this case, is there a way, i could In-Theory offer them my application For their In-House distribution?
Are there any examples? Lets say that they contracted a third party developer (with the app in AppStore) to make their In-House app build.
If the company has a developer Enterprise license, then you can take your source code and build and sign using certificates created from their account. This version of the app can then be distributed within the company. Note that if this company does not currently have an Enterprise developer account, they will have to sign up for one (requires a D-U-N-S number) and will need to incur the annual cost of $299.
There are a number of things that you need to deal with. You will need to deal with ownership of your code, ongoing support and recompiling the app for them annually when the certificate expires, etc. since you are not an employee of this company.
This question will probably get closed for being off-topic, but hopefully gives you something to think about.

My iOS developer licence is expiring as of 1st Feb and I was wondering if I can switch to enterprise licence or should I do that from beginning? I wish to keep my Apple IDs and apps...
You may have misunderstood what the Enterprise iOS Developer Program is all about which is not an upgrade to the Standard plan you're enrolled to. The Enterprise license is mainly intended for companies and organisations that are creating proprietary iOS apps for internal distribution (In-house). The main benefit is that you can deploy private apps to iOS devices without needing to register UDIDs in the provisioning portal as you do when distributing Ad-hoc builds. On the other hand you're not allowed to distribute apps on the App Store.
Only companies and organizations with a Dun & Bradstreet (D-U-N-S) Number can enroll to the Enterprise developer program.
Take a look at the following FAQ and compare the Standard and Enterprise developer program here
Switch from a Personal to Enterprise means that you will lose the ability to distribute app via the App Store.
Also Enterprise license are ment for big companies to distribute app in-house, meaning apps for employees only.

I need to add more than 100 devices to Apple Developer Program. They are not accepting more than.
Is there any way or update, to add more than 100 device in a year?
EDIT :
we already added 98 devices. we need to test our apps/games on new devices (iPhone5/iPod5).
Any idea?
No, you don't need it (and you can't do it). Unless you are building an in house application, in which case you need an Enterprise License.
The only option that you have is buying a 2nd developer license.
As stated here the Enterprise License it's not good because:
you need to have a company
you need to have your own distribution system and provide personal informations
you are not able to distribute the app outside your internal distribution system, this mean no apple store for an Enterprise License.

If a company has an iOS app that it wants to distribute to its customers, but it doesn't want that app to be submitted to the app store and subject to the App Store submission criteria, then can it use the Enterprise app development program to do that? - or is the enterprise program strictly for app development and distribution within a company?
This is all spelled out pretty clearly in the information Apple provides about the enterprise program. For example, you can start with this page which says unambiguously:
You plan to only distribute your iOS apps within your company or organization
There's much more detail in the enterprise program agreement.
Yes, you could do that. The devices from the other company just need your distribution provisioning profiles. We did that in my previous company a lot.
Not sure if it's officially legal though.

I've been searching for answer on how to deploy iOS apps without going through App Store and the only answer is through the Enterprise Program, however, we need to have the DUNS number to be enrolled in the program. We are looking on the TestFlight but it only deploys beta apps.
Is there a way we can deploy iOS apps the Enterprise way even if we are not enrolled in Enterprise? BTW, we are enrolled in iOS Developer Program.
The answer is, you CAN'T. DUNS number is a compulsory requirement for iOS Enterprise Program, as the number ensures you are really representing an "Enterprise".
The enterprise program is intended for deploying apps within your organization. It does allow you to deploy without going through the app store approval process, but it does not allow you to deploy to just anyone.
There's no way to deploy "the enterprise way" without being in the enterprise developer program, and you'll need a DUNS number to get into that program.
You can deploy to a small number (i.e. < 100) of devices using ad hoc deployment, but that's really intended more for testing than actual distribution. You'll need the UDID of each and every device on which you want to install the app.
