When living between 2 countries, where is it best to open a new PayPal account?

My Thai account is permanently restricted and must be closed. I am a US citizen but have lived 35 years in Thailand. I go to the USA Veteran's Hospitals for medical care.

Paypal is country specific so you have to open a paypal account in the country you reside in and 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.
