Migrate to a new XBOX live account

the good news is, this option is now available. previously it was not. you will need to call in to xbox support to have them migrate your account over to the USA. you can't do this over the internet.

For the best experience with live your account country and actual country must match

If it doesn't you must either create a new gold account with the proper region or use the migrAtion tool

Immediate results is new account

Migration can take unto 30 days

If you do not live in an xbox live country it will not matter anyways

Hey there!

Once a Microsoft Account has a Gamertag associated to it, an Xbox Live Gamertag migration is not possible. Unfortunately in this case that means that your GMX email will not be able to migrate to your Gmail due to it already having an Xbox Live account tied
to it. The target email must be created with out signing into Xbox.com or an Xbox console. For all information regarding migrating your Xbox Live account to a new email address, please check our

Change your Xbox Live account email address page.

Hope this helps!

You can only migrate your account to a new Xbox LIVE region, not to an existing one.

It's not possible to migrate an account to the UK.

An account migration tool was created last year for a few new countries to the Live service, but the UK was not one of the countries included.
