Answer

Hi there,

AWS Control Tower requires the management account to be in the correct Region matching the physical location.
To migrate your organization's management account to the correct location please use the AWS Organizations service console at - https://console.aws.amazon.com/organizations/home.
Once the migration is complete, you should be able to successfully set up your AWS Control Tower landing zone.

Please do let me know if this helps, you can also try opening a support ticket where a support engineer can confirm.
