Sorry, but no.
The issue is that your credit or debit card credentials must be associated with the same country where you reside.
"Although you can browse the iTunes Store in any country without being signed in, you can only purchase content from the iTunes Store for your own country. This is enforced via the billing address associated with your credit card or other payment method that you use with the iTunes Store, rather than your actual geographic location."

    Any help how can i change country region ?

    Contact iTunes support and ask them to delete the amount left in the account.
    That money will be lost and will not transfer to a new country's App Store.
    Once iTunes support has deleted the remaining funds, yo should be able to
    change the AppStore you use.

  • How can I change Country/Region when I still have store credit balance?

    I registed an iTunes account when I lived in Japan and I used Prepaid Card to redeem Japanese Yen to account (Country/Region=Japan). I have 60Yen in account now, this amount is smaller than cheepest apps (cost 85Yen).
    Right now, I came back to Vietnam and want to change Country/Region and  to continue purchase apps in Apple Store:
    - When I change Country/Region, I received error message "You have a store credit balance; you must spend your balance before you can change stores.". But I couldn't spend money due to not enough money.
    - When I change Payment Type to Visa card, I received error message "You payment method is not valid in this Store. Please enter a new payment method."
    How can I change Country/Region when I still have store credit balance? Please help me solve this issue.

    You can't change your account's country when you have a balance on it. If you can't spend it then you can try contacting iTunes support and ask if they can remove the balance for you : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • IOS 6.1: Can't change country/region. Bug?

    After updating to iOS6.1, i am now unable to change the appstore region using my existing ID. I've noticed a few friends who have updated to iOS6.1 experiencing similar problems. Is this bug known to Apple?

    Try this:
    1. App Store>Featured>Apple ID (at bottom of page)
    2. Tap on Apple ID>View Apple ID
    4. Enter your password
    5. Country/Region>Change Country or Region"
    this resolved my issue.

    Please change apple id balance : $0.00 for change country/region

    1) Buy something and charge the rest to a credit card.
    2) Ask Apple to keep the balance.

  • Option for changing country/region does not show

    I Use IPad IOS 8.
    I want to change the region from United States to The Netherlands, but there is no option to do this.
    I logged in to Apple Store and chose View Account. The option does not show.
    I Searched the community, but no solution found that helped me.

    I'm confused now as to what you need to do and what's not working. The whole part about using Safari makes no sense, but I could very well be misunderstanding you.
    Whatever your region is set to in the iPad settings should sync to the settings in the iStores ...iTunes, the App Store and the iBooks Stores on the iPad. Try this now. Go to the iTunes app on the iPad, swipe to the bottom of the screen in the featured tab. Tap on your ID and sign out. Then sign back in again and see if you are prompted to change to the store that you want to be in.

  • Changing Country/Region

    I bought my AppleTV whilst working in USA, now returned to UK.
    In Settings, I've changed Region to UK but the front page still has CBS,Fox,PBS etc. from America. How can I get the UK front page with the UK content icons? I understood that you could have your Apple TV setup for one country but maintain your iTunes store in another, but perhaps you DO have to change the iTunes store location as well in order to get Apple TV to show UK content icons?
    Thank you very much, yours is a pint if you can crack it.

    As I suspected. Did that and everything's fine! Still, Apple won't produce a BBC iPlayer App, or even a web browser so you could get to the BBC that way. Seems easier just to get what you want on your iPhone and Airplay it over to the TV! Not quite sure what the point of the ATV is nowadays.....except I suppose said Airplay facility. Thanks, see you in the pub for your pint.

  • Unable to change Country Region until credit used, but unable to update credit card as no longer valid

    Hi,
    Please help.
    Im trying to change my app store from Autralia to New Zealand.  It is telling me i need to spend the credit on my itunes account before i can make this change.  So i went to make a purchase, however my Credit Card details need updating, and i no longer have my australian credit card.  I tried inputting NZ credit card details, but this was not allowed.
    How do i get around this? If i dont have a valid Australian Credit Card to make purchases using my available itunes credit, to then eventually change regions in app store?
    Cheers

    You can only use a credit card issued by a Australian bank on an Australian account. Try contacting iTunes Support and ask them if they can remove the balance so that you can change countries : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption
