Clear Apple Account balance

Hello! I want to change my Apple ID country/region, but I have a remaining Apple Account balance of 0.01t. This amount is too small to spend. Please remove/clear the remaining balance from my Apple ID so I can change my country/region.

Hello ~If you are trying to zero your balance before changing regions…you may purchase an item from the App Store for more than your balance and the remainder will be billed to your credit card on file thus zeroing your balance . You may also go to lower left hand corner and click on Support and they can zero it for you or…

Please contact the official Apple Support about that, only they can clear your Apple Account balance.

You can use this link to do so:

Contact Apple Support


If you can not contact them, you can spend the remaining balance to buy an app or content from Apple, which costs slightly more than the remaining Apple Account balance, so that your secondary payment method will be used to charge you for the rest of the payment.


If you haven't already, take a look at this article, to make sure you have completed all steps to be able to change the region successfully:

Welcome and thank you for reaching out. 🤗


  1. Purchase something from the App Store at a cost greater than your balance. This is the quickest option.
  2. If you are unable to spend the remaining balance, then contact Apple Support to request a reset of your account balance to zero.
  3. If you need to change your region, then click ▶︎ Change Region for step-by-step instructions.


Good luck! 👋🏼😉
