Hello, I have made a paypal account a long time ago. At that time I was still living in france and all the primary setting i made was in france (french address ,french phone number) Now I'm living in Japan and do not have anything in france. such as bank account. But I am still receiving money to this account for occasional cases. I want to cancel this account transfer all the money in this account to a bank account in Japan. How is that possible and how should I proceed? Best

Paypal is country specific so if you move countries you have to open another paypal account in the country you reside in and add an address / phone number / bank accounts / cards from within that country.

You should really withdraw any funds / resolve issues / remove cards and bank accounts before you move countries. If you don't then you may have problems doing so once you have moved and may need to contact customer services for help to resolve things.
