Advertiser Verification - Residency Country

[good_luck_commander]

I wanted to start using again an old ads account. But it was deactivated and asked me to do the advertiser verification.

Problem is, my company is in the US, while my residency is not. It doesn't let me change the country, however. Classic Google behaviour, it seems. I was concerned Google might ban me if I just put in my US business address.

Anybody had that problem before? And what did you do about it?

might ban me if I just put in my US business address.

It might ban you because in advertiser verification the country is set by default to your account's one and you can't change it, so if you enter your US address it will basically be a fake address in the eyes of google.


You can't change the country in billing settings, but google support can; so if your account is of "organization" type, you should probably just contact them and ask to change account's country to US

They will probably reply back with something like this, as they did to me

thanks. I wrote them. Lets see what they answer. Im dreading Google Ads support cause in the past they just randomly stonewalled on things.
