Changing country and payment method

Hi I registered my account when I lived in the UAE. So my account was attached to the local bank card which is not valid any more as well as my current country. Can I change the payment method and location please cause I can’t do anything with my Account.

iPhone XR, iOS 14

You need a zero account balance and you need to cancel all your subscriptions. If you have cancelled all subscriptions, but some haven’t expired, contact iTunes Support. You need a valid credit card issued by a bank in the country the store is in and you need a billing address in that country. If you have an account balance, either buy something more expensive and pay the balance with a credit card or contact iTunes Support and ask them to zero balance your account.
