FAQ

# I want to switch my Apple ID country. Will this help?

[Home](https://zerobalance.pro/en/) [FAQ](https://zerobalance.pro/en/faq/)

Short answer

Yes - Apple requires a zero balance before you can switch country. Zero Balance is built for exactly that case. See the dedicated guide.

## In more detail

Apple's rule is strict: the change-country button in Settings is disabled until your Apple Account balance reads exactly zero. The balance does not transfer between storefronts and is not refundable. Zero Balance was created mostly for this scenario - to take a stuck leftover and clear it to zero quickly. The full step-by-step (including the order to cancel subscriptions, wind down family memberships, etc.) is on the dedicated guide page.
