Refer to this document for ways to contact Apple ➞ Choose your country or region - Official Apple Support

Select your country (also look for "other" regions), then a product. If you don't see one that handles your issue then keep experimenting with selections until you reach one that gets you a chat session and get the representative to redirect you.


If your country is not listed on the support pages, go to this web page and fill out the form:
