I am having problems changing my country of residence when I renew my subscription. I changed countries on my profile some time ago, but I’m not able to change countries on my payment method. It doesn’t recognise the post code format.

Microsoft 365 and Office | Subscription, account, billing | For home | Windows

Unfortunately, as per https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/5226127/cant-change-country-when-add-a-new-payment-method

When you have an active Microsoft 365 subscription from another country/region, you will not be able to change your country/region.

You need to wait till the subscription is expired or cancelled before you will ne able to make regional changes and purchase a subscription from your current location. This is due to the regional restriction on Microsoft 365 subscriptions.
