Spotify dominates the music streaming world, but finding key settings amid interface tweaks and limited support can be frustrating. While we've covered restoring removed features in our detailed guide—How to Restore the Best Features Spotify Has Removed—changing your country setting is another common hurdle. Don't worry; we'll walk you through it step by step with proven methods based on Spotify's official processes.
The process depends on whether you have a free or Premium account. Here's what you need to know.
How to change your country on Spotify varies by account type.
With a free Spotify account, you can stream music in a different country for up to 14 days. After that, you'll need to return home or create a new account locally.
To maximize those 14 days, update your settings via a web browser: sign in to your Spotify account, go to Edit Profile > Country, and select from the dropdown. Note: the option appears only if you're physically in that country.
Premium users enjoy more flexibility—no 14-day limit while traveling. For a permanent move, simply update your details.
Log in to your Spotify account page, navigate to Subscription > Update, and enter payment info tied to a financial institution in your new country.
Stuck on free? Upgrading to Premium unlocks ad-free listening and more. Is Spotify Premium worth it and should you upgrade? For most, it's a game-changer worth the investment.
