Balance reset

There are only 2 possible ways to do that:

• Add a payment method from your current region and make a purchase where it will first zero out your account balance with the remainder billed to your card.
• Contact Apple directly and they can clear the balance. Support varies by region, so if you are in a region where direct support is not available, then you will not be able to use this option.

Hello!

I see you want to empty your account balance. The people on this forum—other users like yourself—cannot do this for you but there are two ways you can try:

#1. If you still have a valid credit or debit card from your original country, purchase an item for slightly more than your balance. The remainder will be billed to your card, leaving you with nothing in your account balance. This is the only solution for you to empty your balance if cannot contact Apple Support. This method is the easiest and you get to use your money yourself instead of giving it to Apple.

#2. Ask Apple Support to remove and keep the balance. Live support is not available in all countries.

- Click on the special empty-balance request, chat link at the bottom of this support article ➔ Check your Apple Account balance - Apple Support

- General Apple support and service contact ➔ Contact Apple Support - Apple Support If live support options are available they will show near the bottom left. Telephone numbers may only work when calling from the same country. If numbers show as colored links, click on them for more options.

- With an iPhone, iPad, or Vision, you may be able to chat using the Apple Support App if it is available in your country ➔ https://apps.apple.com/app/apple-support/id1130498044

If you can neither add a payment method nor contact Apple, your alternative is to create a new Apple Account when you are in the new country. Avoid doing that if at all possible. It may cause many complications with your current account content.

When changing account regions there’s a full set of guidelines in this support article ➔

Thank you for reaching out. 🤗

There are many parameters that need to be taken before changing regions because currency valuation is not the same across various regions.

If you are changing regions:

• Spend any remaining Apple Account balance: You can spend your remaining balance on the App Store, other Apple services or in some countries and regions, Apple products and accessories. If you’re not sure if you have a balance, check your Apple Account balance.
• Clear a low Apple Account balance: If your balance is less than the cost of a single item in the App Store or other Apple services, learn how to clear your balance.
• Cancel subscriptions that block a country or region change: Cancel any subscriptions that block a country or region change, then wait until the end of the subscription period. 
• Wait for pending activity to clear: Wait for any memberships, pre-orders, movie rentals or Season Passes to complete. You can cancel a pre-order. Also wait for any pending refunds from Apple to process.
• Check your Family Sharing status: If you’re a part of a Family Sharing group, you might not be able to change your country or region. Learn how to leave a Family Sharing group.
• Have a valid payment method ready: You might need to enter a valid payment method for your new country or region. If you don’t want to enter a payment method, wait until you're physically in your new country or region. Then create a new Apple Account.
• Redownload your content: Some types of content might not be available in your new country or region. Redownload your apps, music, movies, TV shows and books on any devices that you might use to play or read them in the future.
• If you need to empty your balance: Contact Apple Support to request a reset of your account balance to zero.
