To change the country on Amazon, one can follow these steps generally applicable to the Amazon app or website:
- Open the Amazon app and log into your account.
- Go to your user tab or profile section.
- Look for a country flag icon or country/region settings.
- Select the current country flag or "Country/Region Settings," then tap "Change."
- Choose the new country or region you want to switch to from the list.
- Confirm the update and be aware this may change your product availability, pricing, and payment methods.
- Update your delivery address to match the new country.
- If you want to fully transfer your account (including digital content), go to "Account" > "Content and Devices" > "Preferences" > "Country/Region Settings" and follow the prompts to transfer your account to another country.
Some important notes:
- Changing the browsing country only affects what you see but keeps your account linked to the original country.
- Transferring your account to a new country moves eligible digital content and updates your billing address but may cause some digital content or services to be unavailable.
- Amazon limits country changes to about once every few months.
- Updating country settings might require updating payment information and addresses accordingly.
This approach works for both the Amazon mobile app and website, and a country flag or profile section in the app is key to start the process.
