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 are supposed to withdraw any funds / resolve issues / remove cards and bank accounts before you leave your old country. 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.

Hi,
Thanks a lot for your answer, very appreciated!
It's not the situation I'm having though, I'm not changing country nor address, it's only that I do not have any phone number attached to my residential country. I still (always) lived in France but my number is Spanish... I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one nowadays in this situation and it's likely to concern more and more people now that roaming is free within Europe...
Thanks!
Yann
