Hi,

Thank you for contacting WPML Support, I will be happy to help you.

For Yoast SEO to work with WPML, you need to install the WPML adding plugin: WPML SEO (https://wpml.org/documentation/related-projects/wpml-seo/).

* Please note that: WPML SEO is included in WPML Multilingual CMS and Multilingual Agency accounts.

From your profile, I noticed that you have a Multilingual Blog account, you would need to upgrade to WPML Multilingual CMS, and in such case, you'll pay only the difference and not the full amount for switching account type.
More information can be found here: https://wpml.org/purchase/

In the link below, you can find more information on how Yoast SEO and WPML work:

Let me know if you have further questions.

Kind regards,
Marsel
