Has your account been limited?

Have paypal asked you to supply documents in the resolution centre to remove any limitations?

You can't add a local bank account in your country.
You can only add a linked card.

The only exception is U.S expats can add their bank accounts to other countries paypal accounts (paypal is a U.S company so they allow their citizens to do this).

Click on the link below and select the country you want from the drop down list for options available in that country.

If you are confirming a BANK ACCOUNT then how would sending a code to an email address confirm that you owned that bank account?????

The code goes to your bank account to prove you own it and then you prove it by entering the code by your added bank account on your paypal account.

However as I said if you click the link i don't  think you can add a local bank account in your country.
