HI AnnitaNilsson,

 

The rules are clear. The Paypal account has to be created in the country you are living in with the information of the country you are living in.

If you live in Sweeden, you must have a swedish account with swedish details ( card, bank, post adress, phone and so on)

 

You cannot change the default country, you have to remove all your financial details and close the account and create a new one in the country where you live now

 

Best Regards

This is too bad. I created my account while living in france at the time. Since then I moved to sweden, the states and now the UK for work and so can't use your services anymore.

Hi antoine,

 

You can still use your PP account if you wish, but you won't be able to add your credit card neither your bank account because the format is not the same. The best thing to do is to close the account and create a new one in your country of current residency

 

Best Regards
