Can't change my address to non-U.S.?! Why?!

Hey all ~ I have recently moved out of the USA and am trying to change my PayPal address to Sweden but I can't do it (only USA addresses seem to be accepted).  Why is this and has anyone found a work-around?  My bank account and credit cards linked to PayPal are all American banks, so I don't get this.

I've been having the same problem all day. This is what the automated help said:

 

For security reasons, you can only register addresses from one country in your PayPal account. If you are moving to another country, you'll need to close your existing account and open a new account in the country where you are now residing.

With a network of more than 190 countries and regions and in multiple currencies, PayPal reaches across the globe to give you a way to pay or get paid. Click here to visit our worldwide service page.

Before we continue, was the information I gave you helpful?
