Brexit to bring about changes to your Amazon Prime account

New regulations will come into effect on January 1st that will block UK residents' access to Amazon Prime Video when travelling abroad. 

Before the Brexit transition period, UK customers had been given full access to the Prime Video catalogue when travelling in EU countries including Ireland. 

This included full live coverage of the Premier League, which will continue until at least the end of the 2021/22 season. 

A reduced catalogue will soon be available that will still include hit TV shows like The Boys, Utopia and Fleabag. 

The full catalogue of content will be available upon return to the UK, but individuals who have relocated are recommended to change their home location in their Amazon Prime Video settings

The same advice can also be given to Netflix subscribers as part of the cross-border portability regulation that will be revoked from this Friday, January 1 2021. 

More information on this can be found here on the UK government website.
