If you are relocating to another country and own an iPhone, you must remember to change the country of your Apple App Store. When you change your billing address and payment method, these are a few things to keep in mind. For starters, it is possible that your previously installed apps will not be available in your new country. Subscriptions and credit balances will be impacted, and you may end up paying more as a result of the new currency. So, here’s how to make the switch and a couple of things to remember before you do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To change your App Store country, go to your iOS device’s iCloud settings. Navigate to Media & Purchases > Account View > Country & Region. Change the country and then click Agree. Open the Music app on a MacBook, then go to Account > Account Settings > Change Country or Region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There are a few things you should think about before changing your App Store country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This will be covered on both an iOS device and a MacBook. We’ll show an iPhone for the iOS device, but it’s the same on an iPad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you prefer to do this on your MacBook, launch the Music app. After that, navigate to Account > Account Settings. You will be prompted to sign in with your Apple ID.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Change Country or Region can be found under Account Information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The rest is identical to the iOS method. Cancel any active subscriptions, switch to a different country, accept the terms and conditions, and enter your new address and billing information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Using an Apple Prepaid Card is the only way to change the App Store country without paying. The Apple Prepaid Card, also known as the Apple Gift Card, is typically used to purchase goods and services from Apple Stores, apple.com, iTunes, Apple Music, Apple TV, Apple Books, and other Apple properties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When you are about to move or have recently moved to a new region and are unable to provide a valid payment method and billing address based in that country in a timely manner, redeeming the Apple Prepaid Card can solve your problem of needing new country services without a credit card in a timely manner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you are a part of a Family Sharing plan, you may not be able to make any changes on your own. It must be done by the plan’s owner. If you have a Family Sharing plan and the others are in a different country than you, you may be unable to change anything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
No, only one needs to be changed. Assuming that all of the devices are signed into the same iCloud account, the App Store change will be synced over immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Yes, but each account must have a billing address and a payment method for the country in question. You must also log in and out of each account (you cannot be logged into both at the same time). App updates will not be downloaded or installed until you log in to your account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
No, they will not leave. However, in order to receive future updates, you must create a second account in the country where you downloaded the app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You can change your App Store country to the country in which that app is available. In that country, you can also create a second Apple ID, sign in, and download the app to your device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To enter your Apple ID account, go to Settings on your iPhone and click your name at the top of the screen. View Account > Country\/Region > Media & Purchases Change the country or region to the United States from the country list. After reviewing the Terms & Conditions, click Agree and Next.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
