Move down there/move there

Good day, everyone. I have a friend who is living in the U.S and is asking me to bring something for her. I'm not sure if I'm using the correct term. A) "I will bring it when I move down there." B) "I will bring it when I move there." Please help. Thank you.

Down (there) is often used when the direction described is southerly. Up for north, back for east, and out for west. These may be only an AmEng usage.

Natural English is eg I'll bring it when I come.

So B) would be correct then? I saw a few people using the term "move down there" when referring to moving to a different country or to a different place. Like for example, "I'm going to move down there when I earn enough money."
