How to change Itunes Store Country

 
 
 
 
I thought I'd give another short explanation to how you can change your country in the Itunes Store. As most guides I've found are really bad, and not very easy to follow or understand as most are outdated and what not. 
 
Here comes a quick, nice and easy guide!
 
What you need for this guide;

  • Email account that isn't used with Itunes.
  • 5 minute of your time.

 

  • Logout from existing account
  • Choose create new account
  • Change the region/country to whatever you like, let's choose US for this guide
  • Fill out the form with information, email and what else there is
  • Once you get to payment information you won't find "none" yet. Though you click cancel here, and you will get taken out of your registration form.
  • Search & find any app that's free, and try to download it, doing this will again prompt you back to account creation screen, but this time it will be in US. Because when you changed the store when trying to make a new account, that got saved, so now you are US Itunes Store, you just don't have an account.
  • Fill out the information again as you did in step 4
  • Once payment information pops up, you will have a choice named "none" this time.
  • Click that, complete and verify your email adress, and you're done!
  • Congratulations.

If you encounter any problems or need help just reply to the topic and ill try to help you as fast as I can.
 
I do appologise in advance if there already is a guide for this, or if I actually posted in the wrong section, as I am rather new to posting here, again, I appologise.

How to change Itunes Store Country <<---- Just a create a new account the way you did on your first account but this time choose a different country. I don't think you need a tut for that. Also, you don't need you sign out to change a country. You just simply select 'View Apple ID' & change your Country & address.

Acutally you do. If you are on let's say, Swedish Itunes Store ( I dare even stretch to EU ). You can't just change the region to US. You need to sign out, create a new, bypass the Payment information ( otherwise you will be required to get a US Card to pay with. So you indeed need to do this, I know since I did it just a couple weeks ago.

Indeed it is, why didn't I find this before? I just came up with mine mixing some very wierd and long instructions on other sites on how to do this. After playing around for 30 mins, this actually worked ( what I wrote ). So I thought I'd just give a shout out to it. The more info about anything, the better it is.
