Transfer Your Amazon Account to a Different Country or Region
If you moved to a new country that supports your device, you need to transfer your Amazon account to that country. You don't need a new account or purchase a new device.
You can transfer your account to the previous country or region at any time as long as you have an active billing address for that country.
Important: If you create a new Amazon account instead of transferring the existing account, purchases won't be shared between the accounts. You’ll have separate login credentials for each account.
Note: You can't transfer Luna subscriptions between countries, so make sure to cancel your Luna subscriptions before transferring your account. However, when you start a new Luna subscription in a supported country, your game progress transfers to the new subscription.
To transfer your account from your existing country to another:
- Cancel your Luna subscriptions in your current country.
- Go to Manage Your Devices and select Preferences.
- Select Country Settings, and then Change.
- Enter your new address and phone number, and select Update.
- A message displays the current country or region where you can shop. Select the here hyperlink to show the marketplace where you can shop.
- Select Learn about, and review the details about shopping in the available marketplace. If you agree, to transfer your Amazon digital account, select Update your default Kindle Store to....
- Once you select this option, follow the prompt to log in again in the new country, completing the transfer.
You can reverse your transfer by redoing the steps above.
