Q: International warranty for iPhone

Hello, I would like to know if it's possible to get international warranty from Apple? I found lot of different answers for this questions on the internet. I would like buy iPhone in Canada but after two months I am leaving back to Czech republic. I am not really sure if in case some troubles I can use Apple service in Europe? Thank you so much for advice

No. The iPhone warranty has never been international.

It's not a good idea to buy an iPhone anywhere other than the country where you intend to use it.

The only exception is the "cross-border" warranty in the EU where Apple treats the EU a a single "country". F. E: buy an iPhone in Spain and you will get warranty service in Germany.

Ok then. Point made.

Let's just move past this. Seeing as how you (and possibly others here) may be moving to Canada post election day.

Well, we haven't sold the house in Nova Scotia (where I spent a lot of my childhood) just yet.

Possibly The Donald will have 2 walls constructed, one at each end of the country, to keep the voters in.
