Transfer big amount of money from one paypal account to another

[Lucke080]

Hello,

I used to receive all my job payments in Paypal while working in Germany. Now I moved back to France and need to transfer all the money I have in Paypal Germany in Paypal France. It's quite a big amount, a 3 digits figure, for 12 years of work, can I transfer them easily from one paypal account to the other? Both accounts are verified

Thanks

You mean 6 digit number, no? Like 300,000? 3 digit is 300, 4 digit is 3,000, 5 digit is 30,000 and so on.

You may have to send more than one time depending on any sending limit from Germany.  For 12 years of work, can't just only be 3 digit.

Check what your sending limit is, if any, from Germany PayPal site.  Click Legal link at the bottom of the site.

Yeah sorry, 6 digits. 

Like all the "legal" things it's all very complicated with pages and pages of explanations. Also I don't know if they will charge me a fee to transfer the money

It's not that complicated. The user agreements have topics you can click.  You are sending money right? So click Sending Money.

Not hard at all. You cannot go through life like that.  How do you go about protecting yourself legally.

3.2 Sending Limits

If you have a periodic sending limit on your PayPal Account, you can view it by logging into your PayPal Account and clicking on the “View Limits” link on the “Account Overview” page. We may, at our reasonable discretion (for example, without limitation, to limit fraud or credit risk), impose limits on the amount of money you can send through the PayPal Services in order to minimize the risk of payment losses or fraud.

I can't read German so kinda hard to help with the stuff below if it does have info on your case. You have posted on a forum for US PayPal .
