You can't add a local bank account / debit card in your country.
You can only link a visa credit card.

Also the option to receive paypal payments is sadly not available in Cameroon.
You can only send payments for purchases funded by your (confirmed) credit card.

Paypal varies a lot country to country and can only offer the services that the banks / governments of that country allow it to offer.
There are quite a few countries unable to receive paypal payments.

I put my country like Cameroon because I told myself that we were asking for my country of birth!Otherwise my country of residence is France! So how do I confirm my account when I haven't received the code?And also I would like to change my country! Thank you
