I am a UK resident and an Apple shareholder. I bought in at 20 cents many years ago.
My shares are held by my stockbroker. I never get any communications from Apple, is this normal?
Do any other none US residents get any communications from Apple?

Most of the time this is set within your brokerage account. If US based, it could very well be that they charge a higher fee to send paper info outside of the US and so aren't sending it to you, by their choice or yours.
We own AAPL across many accounts, and on some we get paper copies in the mail, while others we get an emailed copy or nothing. It just depends on how the account is set up, and often these days we set it to not send paper or email, since we already get the info and we could get the info for any particular account by logging into it. But, this is all within the US.
For comparison, I have a few shares of BP, which is based in the UK. I think I still get the docs, even paper copies. But my account is also charged a quarterly fee, maybe $15. This is something to do with it being an overseas company, and I don't think it is specifically set due to foreign docs or currency exchange, but rather just a general fee.
Check your brokerage account and see if there are some options for you to set. Good luck.
