Can I not link my NRE bank account to Paypal to receive money?

Hello Experts,

 

 I am new to Paypal. I am trying to set up a new account to accept payments with the base currency as USD. I want to receive money in INR. 

 For this, I am trying to connect Paypal to my NRE account. I hope this is possible?

 I have received a notification from Paypal about a day ago that they have transferred 2 small amounts but I do not see that in my bank account yet.

 Moreover, I am unable to verify if I had mentioned correct bank account or not.

 

 Can someone please advise?

Not sure if you can add that bank as paypal does not accept all banks.

However...............

 

make sure you wait the 5 business days for the code to show on a bank account in India.

The option to accept payments in INR or domestic payments is not available in your country unfortunately.

You can only accept paypal supported currencies from international sales and then when the funds are withdrawn they are converted to INR before hitting your bank account.
