How to get the Egypt price

Four steps, about ten minutes, for YouTube Premium.

  1. Pick the country

    Egypt is cheapest at $1.26/mo (E£65.99); Nigeria at $1.28/mo is the fallback if the checkout refuses your payment.

  2. Connect a VPN to Egypt

    YouTube reads your country from your IP address when you sign up. Connect to a server in Egypt before you open the signup page.

    Compare VPN plans Sponsored · SafeShell VPN

  3. Pay with a card the checkout accepts

    Many regional checkouts take a foreign card; when they refuse it, a multi-currency card that pays in the local currency usually passes, without a conversion fee eating the saving.

    Open a Revolut account Sponsored · Revolut

  4. Sign up and keep the region

    Complete the signup as normal. The regional rate usually stays with the account for as long as you remain subscribed — the VPN is needed at signup, not every day. Full guide, with what can go wrong.

Before you do this: Paying a different region’s price usually breaks the vendor’s terms of service, and some checkouts verify a local billing address. Read the terms before you switch. Catalogues and features can differ by country, so confirm the price on the official checkout first. What breaking the terms means in practice.

The two buttons are affiliate links: if you sign up through them the site earns a commission, at no extra cost to you. They are the only paid links on the page and never affect which country ranks where. Full disclosure.

Bars are coloured against the United States: a bar three times the dashed line takes three times the share of a month's income that it takes in the United States. The rank-move integer is the country's rank by income share minus its rank by dollar price — the gap between "cheap" and "affordable". Hours of work spread GNI per capita (PPP) over 2,080 working hours a year.

No income data Taiwan — the World Bank publishes no GNI per capita (PPP) figure for it

Questions

Where is YouTube Premium cheapest?

Egypt at $1.26/mo (E£65.99), of the 43 countries we hold a Premium price for. The dearest is Norway at $17.62/mo — 14× as much.

How much does YouTube Premium cost in the United States?

$15.99/mo, which ranks #40 of 43 priced countries. The world median is $7.29.

Can I pay the price in Egypt from another country?

Often, yes. YouTube reads your country from your IP address when you sign up, and some checkouts also check the card's country. A VPN connection to Egypt and a card the checkout accepts usually get the regional price — the four steps are on this page. It generally breaks the vendor's terms of service, and some services verify a local billing address.

Is it legal to buy YouTube at the Egypt price?

Using a VPN is legal in most countries, and paying a vendor's own published price through its own checkout is not a crime anywhere we know of. Breaking its terms of service is a contract matter: the realistic worst case is being asked to move the account back to your real region, or losing it. A few countries restrict VPNs themselves. The longer answer.

Where do these YouTube prices come from?

From opentherank.com and geopriced.com, last read 2026-07-27. Where more than one carries the same country and plan, one figure is selected by a fixed rule — the vendor's own storefront price beats a third-party store listing — and the other is discarded rather than shown. The methodology page writes the rule out in full.

Prices from opentherank.com and geopriced.com, last verified 2026-07-27. One price per country and plan, chosen by the rule set out in the methodology. Figures are list prices as published; they are not purchase offers, and a storefront may refuse a buyer outside its own market.
