How to change Apple ID country, iTunes country

I moved to another country.

I canceled all subscriptions but some of them - are yearly subscriptions till the middle of the next year..

I can't wait for 1 year before changing the region. I'm ready to buy all of it again from a new country. The same is with iCloud: I have data there, I cancelled the subscription, but how long it will keep my data? I need to change the country and continue to use all services.


Can I send some support-request for cleaning all "payed data" for me to change country ASAP?

MacBook Pro 14″, macOS 13.4
