Hello sune,


Note this section of the document Change your Apple ID country or region - Apple Support about what to do before you change country -->

"Redownload your apps, music, movies, TV shows, and books on any devices that you might use to play or read them in the future. Some types of content might not be available in your new country or region. Learn what types of content and services are available in your new country or region."


Make sure you have copies of anything you want actually on your devices, and most importantly on a computer from which you can sync them in future, and keep backups. That way you won't have to redownload them. Remember, you can also sync media to a mobile device from a computer. Sync your iPhone, iPad, or iPod using your computer - Apple Support
