Are you perhaps you are located within the UK or EU - both pf which have recently enacted stronger age-verification legislation.
In the UK, by example the recently enacted UK Government Online Safety Bill has resulting in Apple introducing strong age-verification. Some additional information can be found here:
Legal - UK Online Safety - Apple
When updating to iOS/iPadOS 26.4, it may be necessary to complete a robust age-verification process - the required steps being determined by how much information Apple already possesses about you and your Apple Account. In some circumstances, Apple will verify your age using a Credit Card registered in your name, or other National Identification (e.g. Passport).
If you are using a centrally managed device, such as used in many Enterprise/Business or Educational environments, the System Administrator may have applied policy controls for content, online services or Apps.

It sounds like a problem with age verification. If you would answer the questions, we may be able to point you in the right direction rather than just guess at possible solutions. Thanks!
