It appears to have been discontinued. But I'm sure DJI or some third party will make a Remote ID add-on. You don't need it yet.

Hi, WA4OSH. Thank you for your feedback. According to the FAR Part 89 Remote ID regulations, RID compliance for American users starts on September 16, 2023. Before that, the FAA RID regulation does not affect the user’s flight activity. DJI will conduct an evaluation and prepare appropriate plans for different aircraft after the RID technical standards and MOC recognized by FAA are issued. Thank you for your kind understanding.

So the Phantom 4 Pros that are being sold were manufactured before September 16, 2022?

§ 89.510 Production requirements for unmanned aircraft produced under a design approval or production approval issued under part 21 of this chapter.
