Hello

I can’t create an Apple ID on my iPhone because it’s giving me a default country as China mainland. Please tell me what I can do.


I’ve changed country/region to my desired country but whenever I want to create Apple ID, the country or region remains as China mainland.


please help me out. Below is a picture of the error I got

iPhone 8 Plus, iOS 13
