How can I add a non US address to my account

Hello at Paypal.  I have temporarily moved to Australia for a year and a half.  I was just trying to purchase someting from a US seller and wanted to add my Australian address to my account for shipping purposes.  But the system will only let me enter US address:  Only the US states are offered and there is not space for a country in the address.

 

Additionally, I will be selling a few things on eBay over here and I want to be able to use my Paypal for buyers to send me payments.  But I want it all to stay in Australian dollars.  What is the best way to do that?

 

Thank you.

A US PayPal Account requires a US Address.   Not much you can do about that.

 

In your Account Profile, you can change the accepted currency.

Thanks for the prompt reply, skier. Well that is a bummer but I suppose it makes sense.  I'll just have to have it shipped to our US address and then forwarded here.

 

Thank you.

You will need to open a new PayPal account.
