Can't change "Region/Coutry" in Payment Information for Azure Account Registration

2.2k Views Asked by At

I want to register for an azure account (my free account is already older than 12 months). In the Page for "Payment Information" I cannot change "Region/Coutry". It's fixed to Germany, but I don't live there anymore and my credit card has a different adress (not in germany).

How do I change that?

The Region on my laptop is correct (not germany). I already tried to change the Location in my hotmail-account as well, but this didn't fix the problem, I am still not able to change the Country in the "Payment Information".

Did anybody encounter the same issue?

Update your country or region Changing the country or region for an existing account isn't supported. However, you can create a new account in a different country or region and then contact Azure support to transfer your subscription to the new account.
