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.
So you can't use an UAE paypal account in Spain. Paypal varies enormously country to country. A UAE account does not have the friends/family option but a Spanish paypal account would.
