I need my Limited Funds

I have a PayPal account from Germany that has money on it (2k). I left Germany because I finished my studies and I haven't verified it. I tried to transfer the funds yesterday to my sibling's account for withdrawal and I managed to only send 1000. It prevents me from sending the rest because "You reached your sending limit". I can't verify my account because I'm no longer in Germany with valid German ID. Is this sending limit a weekly thing or permanent? How am I supposed to get my money out now? I want to close it and open an account for my location here (Qatar).

Paypal is country specific so if you move countries you have to close your old Paypal account and open a new Paypal account registered in the country where you now live. You would then need to add an address / phone number / bank accounts / cards from within that country.

You should really withdraw any funds / resolve issues / remove cards and bank accounts / cancel any subscriptions and close the old Paypal account before you move countries. If you don't then you may have problems doing so once you have moved and may need to contact customer services for help to resolve things.
