Apple ID

I deleted my apple ID account on my ipad long time ago. However, my ipad is still logged in with that email as Apple ID.

Now I want to change my Apple ID, but i can't, because whenever i try to sign in, it says "You do not have a Apple ID"

So i'm stuck. My ipad is logged in with an Apple ID that is no longer exist.

What should i do?

Did you delete that AppleID with Apple? I.e. did you follow directions in -> How to delete your Apple ID account - Apple Support

If so, you should have noted this section:

“Make sure that you sign out of all your devices to avoid issues with apps that use your Apple ID account or iCloud. After your account is deleted, you can't sign out of iCloud or turn off Find My iPhone Activation Lock on your devices. If you forget to sign out, you might not be able to use your device when your account is deleted.“

Since you did not do that, you may never be able to use that device again. You can try and get Apple to release it, IF you can provide sufficient proof of ownership. Use the online form at -> https://al-support.apple.com/#/additional-support

If you meet Apple’s documentation requirements, they can help you. But if not then there is nothing you can do.
