Please follow the steps

Step 1. Create an Indian Apple ID at appleid.apple.com/en-in . You go to "Create your apple ID" You enter your first and last name, India, date of birth, an email that you have not used before for Apple, and your Australian phone number, change the prefix to Australia (as they will send you confirmation codes) .

Step 2. Go to Amazon Australia to your account and add an Indian address.

Name: Your name and surname
Street: Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Int'l Airport Rd
City: Mumbai
State/Province/Region: Maharashtra
Postal Code: 400099
Phone Number: 1234567890

Step 3. (Incognito mode recommended) Buy an apple store card on Amazon India. You log in with your Amazon account. Write the desired amount (999 rupees for Apple TV+, which is what the annual cost is). You click to pay by card and write your full name and your card (Revolut it's recommended, but any card should work).

Step 4. They will send you a code by email to the email you have in your Amazon account. Now download the Apple Music app (both IOS and Android). You log in with the email you created in step 1.
You go to the settings (top right over the 3 dots). Click "Account" and then "Redeem gift card or code." Copy and paste the code that was sent to you by email (App Store Code). And you will already have your 999 rupees in your Apple account. Important : Add the Indian address from step 2 with the same details in "Account" - "Payment Information" in the Apple Music app. Mod 14/5/24: If you cannot redeem, see here.

Step 5. (Incognito mode recommended) Visit tv.apple.com and log in, click the profile picture at the top right and then click "Settings" . Scroll down to "Subscriptions" and select "Manage". You select the monthly subscription of 99 rupees and click to accept. After completing the monthly subscription, you again go to “Subscriptions” and “Manage” and switch to the annual subscription of Rs 999 which is cheaper than going month to month.
Although VPN India might not be required, in case it doesn't direct you to apple tv India, switch your VPN ON to India.

All content will be the same as Apple TV Plus AU. No VPN will be required to watch.

    All looks good, seems to be working on my end. Only difference to the above steps was that when I went to sign up to Apple TV under my new icloud account that I created, it recognised that I hadn't used the 7 day free trial previously for Apple TV, so hence I signed up for the 7 days, and then changed subcription method to annual, so I assume in 7 days time it will roll into an annual subscription and use my account balance of 999INR. So really, 1 year and 7 day subscription for $20 odd AUD, awesome deal!

    One point - the URL above has an extra space in it "amazon.in/hfc/bill /apple_store_codes". Remove the space after "bill", like this:

      Most likely the VPN it's not required. It's only if you stack at step 5 and apple tv india doesn't come up, that's when you might need it.

      • yayo321 on 16/10/2023 - 22:39

                      u claim apple gives away free codes

                      its not free if u have to buy something with it.
                      and such a claim is pointless if its single use

                      if it were a generic code apple gives out that would enable anyone to use it to get a free few months, that would be totally different and be worthy of bringing up

                      And nobody said we werent aware these codes are posted on ozbargain. The point is these circumstantially accessible single use codes arent worthy of boasting about

      • kaleidoscope on 16/10/2023 - 16:30

        or no price. you can find deals for 2-3 month codes and also with purchase of suitable apple device (tv / phone/ ipad etc..) you get 3 month voucher as well… So if you time it right, you may not need to pay much.

  • HomeAlone on 16/10/2023 - 11:17

    Step 2. Go to Amazon Australia to your account and add an Indian address.

    Name: Your name and surname
    Street: Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Int'l Airport Rd
    City: Mumbai
    State/Province/Region: Maharashtra
    Postal Code: 400099
    Phone Number: 1234567890

    Wouldn't it be better to use a random address?

    If everyone on here, Chollometro, MyDealz, etc. are using the same address then aren't we just making it super easy for Apple to identify accounts for termination?

    • Scrooge McDeal on 16/10/2023 - 11:23

      Good point. If someone wants to try a different address and report back that it worked, that would be nice.

      • HomeAlone on 16/10/2023 - 13:36

        No issues with registering the account using a random address, but it did force me on a 7 day trial (was that supposed to happen?) so I have to wait a week for confirmation that the charge for 1 year goes through from my Apple ID balance.

        If I do not add the UPI then it just logs me out. I have not been able to use the amazon voucher anywhere yet.

          Use code in music app first. It will ask you for address then enter one. This will save billing information. Once you redeemed it then open apple tv in pc browser. This time you can skip UPI and won’t log you out. Same thing happened to me. It kept logging me out till I redeemed code and added billing information in Music app.
