I opened my Paypal account in Bosnia and Herzegowina long time ago (2013). I have linked two credit cards without problems. This year (2021) I moved to Germany and now I have a German bank account. I want to link that German account with Paypal. When I click Link a bank it opens "Link a U.S. account. I tried to contact support via Facebook but they didn't do anything, they just keep switching me from one guy to another.

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 / cancel any subscriptions and close the old Paypal account 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.

You can however add a U.S bank account (not card) to 'most' other countries paypal accounts. This is because paypal is a U.S company and so allows this.
