May i pre-order iphone in other country?

an example, if i wanna travel to Japan this year around late September (and around that time next gen iphone will be release). am i possible to do online pre-order via apple.com/jp here on my country, Indonesia. then, select pick-up at Apple Store at Tokyo?

because from what i've read. last year iphone 7 release, the walk-in customer didn't get the stock, because it was belong to customer who had pre-order.

really need information about this.

thank

I strongly recommend you not purchase an iPhone outside the country where you are going to use it. Your warranty will not be valid there, and Apple may well refuse to service it if it needs attention. Further, your cellular carrier may not work with the particular model you get.

If your country offers an online Apple Store, use that method to order.
