How can one cancel subscription and the subscribed status immediately?

I would like to terminate my subscribed status in order to change App Store countries. I want to do it as soon as possible without waiting for the annual subscriptions to expire.

Hi buccci,

Thanks for reaching out using Apple Support Communities. Here to help.

We understand you are seeking to cancel subscriptions immediately so you can change the region of your iTunes and App Store account.

We see you came from the related article, 'How to cancel a subscription from Apple'. As you've found, cancelling a subscription this way will keep your subscription active through the period you have already paid for. Apple Support may be able to assist with canceling subscriptions in a more immediate manner. Use the link below to find contact options in your region.

Contact Apple for support and service

Hope this helps! Take care for now.

Hi Sharon,

I called the Apple Support Team (Japan) and they told me to ask for a refund for the apps I subscribed to. However, I was not able to do that for Ultimate Guitar Pro which the annual subscription renewal was done in May 2021. They told me that I will have to wait until it will expire (May 2022). I am moving countries in a week and there are apps only available in the new country (e.g. ones to manage my bank accounts), therefore I cannot wait for 9 months and need to change my country right now… Would you please help me with this? Hoping to hear from you soon.
