Think Paypal only lets you withdraw to a bank account in local currency.
Advice is voluntary.
Kudos / Solution appreciated.

Hi @JenniEnglish1,
Welcome to the community forum and thanks for posting.
Thank you @kernowlass for your input. Transfers to a local bank account can indeed be processed only in the local currency.
Here's how to find all available withdraw options in your country, @JenniEnglish1: https://www.paypal.com/smarthelp/article/faq1737. I hope this helps!
