Hi there, I can't add a European phone number and address to my US related account settings. Unable to do it since both are temperary in Germany. Seems like the pre-configuration allows US mobile and address only (screenshots available).
Could you help please?
Thank you.

Paypal is country specific so if you move countries you have to close your old Paypal account and open a new Paypal account registered in the country where you now live. You would then need to add an address / phone number / bank accounts / cards from within that country.

 

You can however in most countries add a U.S bank account (not card) to your paypal account. This is because paypal is a U.S company and allows that option for U.S Paypal account holders working in other countries.
