Change Country or Region in the Google Play Store

 


Open the Google Play Store on your Android device and tap your profile icon in the search bar. Select “Settings” from the menu.

Next, expand the “General” section and select “Account and Device Preferences.”

Select "Account and Device Preferences."

Scroll down to the “Country and Profiles” section. You’ll see your old country selected and the option to “Switch to the [Country] Play Store.” Tap it.

Tap the option to change to your country.

A pop-up will ask if you really want to change your country. Tap “Continue” to proceed. You’ll be guided through the process of adding a payment method for that country.

Tap "Continue."

If you don’t see the option to add a country, there are likely a few reasons for that. You aren’t currently in the new country (based on IP address), you’re part of a Google Play Family Library, or you already changed your location within the last year.

That’s pretty much it! The Play Store can take up to 48 hours to reflect your location change. Your old location will remain in your account, but again, you can only switch once per year.
