I just bought a Kindle from Singapore websites and have a few questions. If I did this in Amazon, will they find out if I am from Singapore? Can I ask a friend who lives in Singapore but has US debit card to buy Amazon gift card and send to my email address so I can apply it to my Amazon account?

Will this create problems for me in the future? If my friend bought me the gift cards with his US debit card, will I be able to download the ebooks using my Kindle directly? Thank you for any help in advance. You can use your own credit card to buy Amazon gift card and have it email to you. It is advisable to use VPN, if you read carefully somewhere in the comment, there are few readers received warning from Amazon after buying few ebooks using Singapore credit card.

Continue doing so may cause your account suspended. You can buy ebook directly on your Kindle only if you have US credit register in your Amazon account that tie to the Kindle. Hope the above information helps. When I went to my account and clicked manage my content and devices, then clicked on my device, there is nothing for me to register. Buy a Kindle or get the free Kindle reading app. Hi Belle, sorry for the confusion, we will edit the previous comment.

For Kindle Fire HDX registration, if you switch on the device for the first time, it will guide you through and allow you to login with your Amazon account, once login, the device is automatically registered. Of course, you have to connect the device to the internet first.

Thank you SingaBoleh. I will share you on Facebook. You have really been a great help. If I use the normal way — from my computer to search books then buy the book using my gift cards, and ask them to send to my kindle, can I download the books on my Kindle or is this the time when they are able to know that I am not in the US? I deleted all Singapore credit cards and billing address associated with my Amazon account and just have the courier address.

Is this ok? I will just use gift cards. Thank you Belle. Thanks Belle. The system will only check your location and payment method at the very moment you click the buy button. Again, it is not a good idea to use normal way. Hi SingaBoleh, When I search books on Amazon and if the green window on the right said that this book includes international wireless download, does it mean that it is available in Singapore and thus, I can buy and download it directly to my kindle without the use of VPN?

From our understanding Kindle ebooks are not support in Singapore currently, not sure about future though. We could not find any update that Kindle ebooks is available to Singapore, so the international download does not include Singapore. Thank you SingaBoleh for your reply on the 27th Aug at pm. I really appreciate your expertise. I purchased books and was thinking about how I can watch videos. Can I buy videos using the same method as buying books? Yes, you can read in detailed here.

If you want to stream the video, you will need to on the vpn while watching, unless you download it and watch later. But recently, on my last purchase last week, I used VPN I noticed that after the book was downloaded onto my kindle, the dictionary disappeared. There was a message that said the word was not supported in my language. It suggested that I download a dictionary. I purchased my kindle couple months ago and starting buying books directly from amazon.

I then continued pry cashing until I was unable to do so. The system will ask for postal code or telephone number when you login to Amazon account via different IP too frequently. This is their security measurement to prevent unauthorized access to your account. You can simply enter the registered postal code or telephone umber and you will be able to login. Thanks so much for all the helpful advice on these pages. One tip I would say is to make sure you save the details of US name generator as I was asked to verify my details when logging back in another time eg.

Also the mb via Private Tunnel only allowed me to download 3 ebooks perhaps that was because we also used it to surf the net?

Yes, surfing net with VPN will utilise the bandwidth very fast, you can buy the Private Tunnel prepaid plan for future use, there is no expiry date. Do you aware that you can shop at Amazon and have it delivery to Singapore for free?

Hi, i just found out risk-free method to buy kindle book after i was getting warn letter from Amazon. I just changed my country settings to a fake us address, however my billing address is a singapore address. Will it be risky actually? But I am not too sure what will happen after that.

Esp with the billing. What should i do, thanks. According to the information you have provided, it looks like Amazon is concerning about the validity of your credit card, so it is ok to fax them the statement for verification to recover your Amazon account.

This is usually nothing to do with your Kindle. Hope this helps and hope to hear good news from you soon. Any suggestion or any contact details I can get to them directly?

Hi Jane, it is ok with that. Remember to support us by sharing SingaBoleh to your friend on facebook. I live in the US and i plan to purchase a Kindle Paperwhite for my parents.

I have been a Kindle 5 owner for the past 2. Use this as your shipping address and change your country settings accordingly. If purchase is still a problem, simply buy yourself a gift card and buy the books using it. Hi Syafiq, there is a risk of getting your Amazon account suspended by doing that without a vpn. There were feedbacks somewhere in the comment of our post that people did received a warning letter from Amazon. Thanks for the help but after getting the book in the computer which wi-fi should i connect my kindle to as amazon might track down my wi-fi ip ….

If I continue to use her address for e-books, would I have any problems of purchasing content even if my personal address is in Singapore? I have purchased many times before using Gift Cards last time was less than a month ago but today I cannot purchase using my Gift Card balance. Even though my Gift Card balance is enough, I cannot place the order. But can it work in the other direction?

It depends on which country the ebooks available to? For other countries, you may consider PureVPN. Their website links are located at the right sidebar of this blog. Is it mandatory to do Step 2 loading money into gift cards? Is there no straightforward purchasing methods I can use? Will they send any credit card or personal details to the fake US address I will be registering my Amazon account to?

You can skip the step 2 if you have a US credit card. You can refer somewhere in the comment area where some readers encounter this problem when they are not using the safety method. Any particular reason you want a Japan version? Can I still go around that? I still have gift card balance in my current account. If you still can logon to your Amazon account, then ignore the email and follow the safe method from now on. Kindle because it is reputable the best. Kobo because I can download apps, get books the legit way.

Anyone has exp with kobo? We would say that go for the one which has more users so that you can get support easily, and go for one which has more titles so that you can get the ebooks easily. Maria, I would say go for the kobo if you want to do more than just read! Now, I still can get books paid and free but not the apps.

Even though my country setting is USA and although I access it via VPN, it still says that due to geographical locations blah blah blah. If you want a reader just to read books, than the Kindle is a good choice.

Although there are ways to get a non-kobo book and convert it to read on your Kobo. A bit lecheh but not all that troublesome. Kobo is a great eBook reader too, here is the link to Kobo devices. Omg thank you for your useful info!

I managed to google your web and found help for my Kindle too. But do you know if I continue to dl only free book will they find out my actual address? And if I change back to sg address can I still read the book that I have downloaded from the US address?

The key factor is to use vpn whenever you download a book. No point for changing back to Singapore address, unless you want to use this account to buy other thing on Amazon and ship it to Singapore, then you can add your Singapore address in the account as an additional shipping address, this will not affect your Kindle stuffs.

Do support us by facebook like or google plus and share this site to your friends. Below is a section of the email they sent me. To protect your security and privacy, your issuing bank cannot provide us with information regarding why your payment was declined.

Hi Jude, try to register another Amazon account with Singapore credit card and Singapore address to buy the gift card and email as a gift to your another Amazon account with Kindle.

Thanks for the great tutorial on how to buy a kindle in Singapore. I have just bought 2 for my 2 girls. So what do I do when they arrive? Do I need to register 2 amazon accounts under their names and purchase 2 gift cards? Or is it ok for all the transaction to be done via my amazon account?

Hi Angie, register both devices under one account will allow sharing of all books purchased under that account. Remember to disable the auto sync so that each device will have its own bookmark on the reading books. Congratulations and thank you for this easy to follow and very comprehensive tutorial — I had no clue where to get both the address and the VPN.

One additional question, if I may. As I still use a credit card from France to pay my purchase from. However I would still need the French account at least for my purchases of French books. Is it possible to create 2 kindle accounts, one for each country, on one computer? Last thing I thought to add that might be useful to others.

I only use the kindle software on my computer to first download the books I buy. Then I transfer them into my own library, managed by Calibre freeware.

There I can easily manage it, for instance change the titles, the covers, the tags, transfer it to my reader not a kindle but it also works with it , change almost any ebook format into epub or other. It also transfers all books from the kindle library on the computer to another library which is my own. I believe this provides me with a greater guarantee that, should the account be blocked one day, the previously bought books should still be there and readable.

If you are referring to getting a US address, click here to generate one. You can sign up a VPN here. There is no issue for you to have multiple Amazon accounts of different countries, and you can register your Kindle to any of them as long as your Kindle model is supported by the Amazon of that country.

Later, you can de-register it from the US account and Re-register to your UK Amazon account, purchase book and download to your Kindle. You can switch your Kindle to different Amazon account of different countries.

However, all your purchases of Kindle books from different accounts will stay with respective Amazon account of different countries. We would not cover the modification of the Kindle books here because it involves de-DRM sometimes also known as cracking or breaking the protected books. One can always backup the Kindle books by copy it from Kindle PC to another folder, should only consider the above method when misfortune really happened to the Kindle account one day.

Some will use it for assurance but some may use it for evil. Thank you so much. Then googling got me to find your site. Within seconds my book was in my Kindle!!! Hi, i downloaded the VPN as u directed. It should be very straight forward, download and installed, open the VPN and login with your email and password, click connect.

You may restart your PC and try again, if still cannot connect, check if any of your antivirus software is blocking it? Thanks so much!

You rock.
