No, unless the phone was purchased in a EU country and you take it to an Apple Store in any other EU country. The Apple warranty and AppleCare are generally only honored in the country where the phone was first sold by Apple or an Apple authorized reseller, the EU being the only exception.


For some minor repairs (screen, battery) a store in another country has the option of making the repair, but they are not required to.
