managing Firestick with multiple (home country & Japan) Amazon accounts…?

I have 2 Amazon accounts–1 from my home country and 1 from Amazon Japan (.co.jp). I currently have an Amazon Firestick for my TV. It is registered to my home country Amazon account, which means I can watch some content from my home country, but no content from Amazon Japan.

As far as I can tell, if I want to watch content from Amazon Japan and from my home country, I only have 2 options:

(1) buy a second Firestick and register it to my Amazon Japan account, then switch the Firesticks out on the HDMI plug on the TV.

(2) use my one Firestick and de-register/re-register it between accounts every time I want to watch either home country or Japanese content

Am I missing anything? Is there a third easier way to do this?

  1. Streaming services use geolocation filtering. If you’re using your home country account there is a lot of content that you won’t be able to access from a foreign IP address. There is no way to access both Amazon accounts from a single login account.
