I believe that Kobo reads your IP address, identifies the country you are in, and then you sign up with your country specific address and cc info. It is against the TOS to fake an address, btw. The site displays only the books available in your country and country specific pricing. I know when I buy from kobobooks.com in Canada, I easily use a Canadian credit card, a Canadian IP address, and registered with a Canadian address. The selection is very good, and getting better every day.
