I am creating a profile but I noticed that only some of the tagged value types show up in the UML Types dialog under Configure > UML Types.

I know I can create a predefined type in that menu and that works fine, but if I want these to be packaged into a profile, how can I achieve the same effect? Basically, I want users to be able to import the profile, and then add the needed tagged value to a class or stereotype for example. I don't know for example how you create this on a diagram even though I somehow accidentally achieved it.

You don't do that in a UML profile, but you can export "unattached" tagged value types in an MDG file.

They will be prefixed with the MDG name like MYMDG::tagName

If you don't want that you can use export/import reference data to transfer tagged value types.
