Netflix Prices by Country: Compare Plans Where You Live
To work out how much Netflix will cost each month, start with the plans available where you live, then choose according to how you watch. If you are comfortable with ads and mostly watch in 1080p, you usually do not need to pay for Premium. Consider upgrading if you want native 4K or your household regularly watches on three or four devices at once.
Use the tool below to check monthly prices, switch the reference currency, and compare plan features before choosing.

How do Netflix plans compare?
Standard with ads, Standard and Premium mainly differ in advertising, picture quality and simultaneous streams. If two people in the same household watch different shows, Standard's two simultaneous devices are usually enough. Premium suits households that want 4K or need more devices playing at once.
| Plan | Ads and maximum picture quality | Simultaneous streams / download devices |
|---|---|---|
| Standard with ads | Ads; 1080p Full HD | Watch on 2 devices; download on 2 devices |
| Standard | Ad-free; 1080p Full HD | Watch on 2 devices; download on 2 devices |
| Premium | Ad-free; 4K Ultra HD + HDR | Watch on 4 devices; download on 6 devices |
These are the plans' main features; availability depends on the country. The simultaneous-device limit is not the number of profiles you can create, nor does it permit unrestricted sharing between different households. The download-device limit counts devices that can hold downloads, not the number of titles you can download each month.
Check two things before choosing the ad-supported plan: licensing restrictions can make some titles unavailable, and certain older devices may not support playback with ads. Premium's 4K HDR also requires compatible titles, equipment and network conditions; it does not turn every show into 4K. Select your country in Netflix's official plan guide for details.
Mobile and Basic: available only in some markets
India also offers Mobile at INR 149/month and Basic at INR 199/month. Mobile supports one phone or tablet at a time, up to 480p, without casting or mirroring. Basic supports one compatible device at a time, up to 720p. Neither is a direct equivalent of Standard. See the Indian plan guide.
Basic is not a universal entry-level plan. It has been discontinued in the US, UK, Canada, Australia, Germany and Brazil. Japan does not offer it to new subscribers, although eligible existing subscribers can keep it. Within the tool's current coverage, Basic and Mobile therefore show prices only for India.
Which Netflix plan should you choose?
Keeping costs down and comfortable with ads: start with Standard with ads
If you mainly watch series or entertainment shows, 1080p is enough and you do not mind ad breaks, compare your local ad-supported price first. The plan generally retains two simultaneous streams; it is not a stripped-down, mobile-only option.
Before subscribing, check that your usual devices support ads and that the titles you particularly want are available. If interruptions would spoil your viewing, compare the extra cost of ad-free Standard.
No ads, with one or two devices at once: Standard is usually enough
Standard suits people who mainly watch on phones, computers or TVs without needing native 4K. One person watching on a TV and another on a tablet still fits within its two-device limit.
Owning a 4K TV is not, by itself, a reason to buy Premium. First consider whether Netflix's native 4K/HDR matters to you and whether your usual shows are available in that format.
Want 4K or regularly use three or four devices: consider Premium
Either picture quality or simultaneous viewing needs can justify an upgrade. You might watch alone but care about 4K HDR, or have no particular interest in 4K but need three or four devices playing at home.
Premium also allows more download devices, which can help when family members save shows on different devices. However, the extra streams remain subject to Netflix's household rules. They do not mean friends living at different addresses can freely share the main account.
Watching only on a phone and minimizing cost: check for Mobile
If you watch only on a phone or tablet, can accept 480p and do not plan to connect a TV, India's Mobile plan can be a budget option. If you need TV viewing, casting or higher picture quality, compare the locally available Basic, Standard or other suitable plans again.
For US subscriptions, see our Netflix US plans and pricing guide for upgrade costs, download limits and total bills with extra members.
How much do the same Netflix plans cost in different countries?
Among the eight markets currently covered, using the same reference exchange rates, India has the lowest Standard and Premium list prices, followed by Brazil and Japan. Here are several representative markets in USD; use the tool above for the other countries.
| Country | Standard, approx. USD/month | Premium, approx. USD/month |
|---|---|---|
| India | $5.31 | $6.91 |
| Brazil | $9.42 | $13.04 |
| Japan | $10.06 | $14.49 |
| US | $19.99 | $26.99 |
| UK | $18.79 | $28.19 |
For example, Standard costs INR 499 in India, approximately $5.31, compared with $19.99 in the US: a list-price difference of about $14.68/month. The corresponding Premium difference is about $20.08/month. Check the official prices for India and the US.
The order can change by tier. The UK's Standard reference price is lower than the US price, while its Premium reference price is higher. Compare the plan you actually need rather than looking for a broadly defined “cheap country.”
These are comparisons of local advertised prices. They have not been adjusted to a uniform tax basis and exclude bank currency-conversion charges. A lower local price does not mean you can simply switch your subscription to that country.
Why can't you compare countries by their lowest starting price?
When you see “Netflix from just…,” check which plan the price buys. Starting prices can refer to different plans with different viewing experiences.
In India, INR 149 buys Mobile: phone or tablet only, up to 480p. Japan's JPY 890 starting price is for Standard with ads, which works on supported TVs and other devices at up to 1080p. One costs less but cannot meet TV-viewing needs; the other supports more device types but includes ads.
If you want ad-free 1080p on a TV, compare Standard across countries. If you want 4K, compare Premium. Establish your viewing requirements before comparing prices so that the lowest advertised price does not lead you to the wrong plan.
What should you check before subscribing?
Check the final charge. Whether the advertised price includes tax depends on local rules, and reference conversions are not bank settlement rates. Review taxes and the billing currency at checkout, then check your card's conversion and transaction fees. Netflix's tax guide explains where to find billing and tax details.
Check whether you need extra members. The price tool shows base-plan monthly fees. Extra members usually cost more, and eligibility varies by country, plan and billing channel. For people living at another address, check the local extra-member options rather than choosing solely by simultaneous-device limits.
Check what service you are buying. A Netflix subscription you control, an official extra-member account and a third-party shared profile differ in account control and usage terms. For shared services, read the service duration, capacity limits and support terms. Profile counts are not simultaneous-viewer counts.
Check the billing country. Netflix does not let you freely change your account country to obtain a lower price. If you move permanently to another country, follow the official moving guidance: cancel the original membership, wait for it to end, then restart in the new country and confirm local payment options.
Frequently asked questions
Does Netflix offer the same plans in every country?
No. Among the covered markets, India offers Mobile, Basic, Standard and Premium. New subscriptions in the other seven markets mainly offer Standard with ads, Standard and Premium. A missing country or price does not mean Netflix is unavailable there; check the local signup page.
Do Standard and Premium have different catalogs?
Within the same country, both are ad-free plans. Premium mainly adds picture quality and device capacity, rather than a separate collection of exclusive titles. The ad-supported plan may exclude some titles because of licensing. Catalogs can also differ across countries, so identically named plans do not necessarily offer exactly the same programs worldwide.
Do you need Premium if you own a 4K TV?
No. Standard's 1080p content can play on a 4K TV. Premium's picture-quality advantage matters when you want native Netflix 4K/HDR and the title, equipment and network all support it.
Will Netflix automatically charge local prices when you travel abroad?
No. Travel does not automatically change your subscription to destination-country prices. Netflix says it continues charging the price and currency of your original signup country until you cancel and restart. Changing your account country is for an actual move, not a short trip.
Can you upgrade or downgrade your plan at any time?
You can usually do this through Change Plan in your account. Upgrades to a higher-priced plan generally take effect immediately, with possible billing-date changes or prorated charges. Downgrades usually start on your next billing date, and you retain the old plan's features until then. Partner or operator subscriptions may have different eligibility and timing; see Netflix's plan-change instructions.
