Roblox showing the wrong country on your account? Roblox updates your location automatically and publishes no manual country-selection procedure. Start with your connection, check the country it detects, and contact support if the mismatch persists.

Let Roblox detect your actual location

If you recently moved to another country, Roblox uses automatic regional detection to update your account location. There is no published country-selection procedure to follow in account settings.

Use Roblox from your actual location and allow its regional detection to update your account.

Roblox publishes no deadline for this change. If your old country still appears immediately after moving, there is no fixed waiting period to count down.

If you use a VPN, disconnect it

Open your VPN app.

Disconnect the VPN using its own controls.

Use Roblox on your normal local internet connection. Roblox warns that VPNs affect location accuracy; disconnecting one does not guarantee a corrected country or an instant reset.

Keep the VPN disconnected while Roblox detects your actual location.

Check the country in Account Info

View your detected location on the Roblox website or in the mobile app.

  1. 1.Sign in to your Roblox account.
  2. 2.On the website, open the upper-right gear icon. In the mobile app, open More, represented by three dots.
  3. 3.Select Settings.
  4. 4.Open Account Info.
  5. 5.Compare the displayed account location with your actual country. This is a viewing path, not a manual country-selection procedure.

Contact support when the country stays wrong

If Roblox keeps showing the wrong country, ask Roblox Support for assistance. Roblox does not promise a manual location override through support.

Open the Roblox support form.

Enter your username to identify the affected account.

Select your device under What device are you having the problem on?.

Under Type of help category, choose How To, then How To - Change My Location. Roblox’s support form serves this option directly, even though Roblox does not publish the full category list in its help articles.

In Description of issue, explain which country your account shows and which country you actually live in. Include a recent relocation or VPN use when relevant.

If you have applicable personal-data correction rights, submit a correction request through the Customer Support Form or email [email protected].

Identify the inaccurate information and request its correction. Eligibility and verification requirements apply, and this process does not promise a manual change to your account location.

For a user under 13, have a parent or guardian submit the form.

Regional app access is a separate issue

Your app store’s country controls regional app access. Changing your Apple Account or Google Play country does not directly override the location Roblox detects for your account.

When you need a regional app, set the correct storefront region before obtaining it, as Roblox advises. Downloading or reinstalling Roblox is not an official account-location correction method.

Pay attention before signing in to Roblox-VNG, the Vietnam edition. Roblox states that after your first login to Roblox-VNG, you cannot use the global app with that account. Switching editions is not a reversible location fix, and Roblox provides no official self-service reversal procedure.

If correcting your storefront country does not resolve a regional app problem, contact Roblox Support. For Roblox-VNG issues, contact Roblox-VNG support; this channel does not guarantee a location correction or migration reversal.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will changing my Roblox language change my country?

Roblox treats account language separately from account location. Changing the language is not an official country-changing method.

Does changing my billing address fix my Roblox location?

Roblox provides no official billing-address procedure for overriding your account location.

Does Google Play’s 48-hour update period apply to Roblox?

No. Google allows up to 48 hours for a Google Play country profile to update. Its country changes require you to be in the new country and allow at least 90 days between changes. Google Family membership blocks changes. These rules concern Google Play, not Roblox’s location detection.

What prevents an Apple Account country change?

Remaining account balance, blocking subscriptions, pending activity, and Family Sharing membership can prevent a change. Spend the balance and resolve blocking subscriptions or pending activity before changing your storefront country.
