    Go to the United States and provide a payment method valid in the United States.

    that is an easy answer to look cool and smart  but is not funny or helpful at all. Even free aps one cannot get them in country X if the apple count has an address in country Y. The funny Niel who wrote this useless answer has  level 10 may not know but there is actually people who live in between two countries and is very annoying that apples does not let you get aps you need in your second country just because you also live in another country. for example:  I need help regarding living in two countries and apple store not letting me buy aps that I need in ENgland (ex my vodafone uk app installed in my uk iphone)because my account was originally registered in Portugal and I also maintain a portuguese iphone so even when I change stores and provide a UK card it says I am not authorized to download vodafone uk and sens me back to the apple store portugal

    You also did not provide a useful reply.  The requirement that you have to be in the country and have a payment method associated wit that country is really controlled by the countries, not by Apple.
