Hi Noel,
The error message you’re seeing occurs because your QuickBooks Online (QBO) account was originally set up for the United States. QBO includes features specific to U.S. tax regulations, USD currency, payroll, and reporting formats, and these settings cannot be adjusted to fit a different country.
QBO offers separate versions tailored to each country’s tax rules, currency, and compliance requirements. Once an account is created, the base country cannot be changed, as the software does not support cross-country configurations.
If the account was set up for the wrong country, you’ll need to create a new account for the correct region and subscribe to it. You can cancel the old account if necessary.
If you need help with bookkeeping or navigating QuickBooks, our QuickBooks Live Expert Assisted Team is ready to assist you with a wide range of business tasks.
Keep us posted if you still need further assistance.
