Changing your PlayStation account country is not straightforward. Sony doesn’t allow direct change of region/country on existing accounts. To switch, create a new account using an email address not linked to any PSN account and select the desired country during setup. Note that purchases, subscriptions, and trophies are tied to the original account and won’t transfer.
