    How to change a gamertag when the country/region field is grayed out during payment?


    Hey all,

    Hope you're doing great!

    I'm trying to change my Gamertag, so it doesn't have the numbers appended to it (something that wasn't well explained when I first changed it for free). I have the name in mind and the interface is telling me it's available and it will be shown without the numbers, however, I'm not able to proceed with the payment because the country/region is grayed out and stuck on "United States". My country is Serbia.

    I've tried changing my country in the lower left corner, but that doesn't help, as it won't even open my profile ("something went wrong" error). After several page refreshes, I can access my profile, but it reverts the region to the US.

    Does this mean I'm unable to change my Gamertag if my country isn't supported? Also, why wouldn't it be supported when Xbox sub and all other payments are?

    Thanks!

    :)

    Hello Lord, this is Manuela. I'm an Independent Advisor and community user like you, ready to assist with this.

    Not a Microsoft employee.

    I’m afraid to say, but at the moment, Serbia is not a supported country for the Xbox Live network. It is not possible to pay to change your gamertag for this reason.

    At the moment, only PC Game Pass is compatible with Serbia. But Xbox consoles or Game Pass Ultimate / Console are not available in your country.

    You can review the full list of compatible countries, services, and devices by clicking below:

    Thank you very much for the answer, Manuela!

    Hopefully, we'll get added to the list sometime soon as the appended numbers are super annoying. :)

    I wanted to buy the change gamertag fee but I can't because the billing address country is grayed out in USA

    I followed the instructions but in the 'Country or region' section I'm already in the Philippines. I just added my city and postal code.

    Tried changing my gamertag again but it's still on USA and it's still grayed out.
