What is the ruling on one who fasts in one country and then moves to another?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Peace be upon you, and Allah's mercy and blessings. We fasted on the first day here in the Kingdom, but in our country they fasted a day before that. We would like to return to our country, so what should we do? Do we fast with them or break our fast with them?

Answer:
Your ruling is the ruling of the country you are in. If you go and they see the moon, or they see the moon at the end of the month, then break your fast with them; break your fast with them. And if you are short one day of Ramadan, you make it up if you are short one day of Ramadan. Yes, but you break your fast with the people and do not differ from them. Yes.
