Yes, it's possible for the Indian company to transfer the payment in INR, and you can receive it in Egypt in USD. You'll need to coordinate with your bank to set up an account that can receive and convert INR to USD. Ensure that your bank supports such transactions and discuss the process and any associated fees with them.

Hello @mzareef and @mhelmntrs 

 

Welcome to the PayPal Help Community and thanks for posting here!

 

I am happy to help you with your inquiry about receiving payments to your PayPal account. With PayPal, you can send and receive money in multiple currencies with PayPal. You can receive a payment in a different currency, it’s automatically accepted in the currency received, and a new currency balance is opened in your PayPal account. Here's the article with the information on how to manage currencies in PayPal : How do I manage my currencies in PayPal?
 

To receive payments to your Egypt PayPal account, you have to confirm your email address, verify your PayPal account by adding and confirming a Visa credit card or a US bank account. Any payments received will be available in your balance and your available balance will be transferred automatically to the Visa card or U.S. bank account that you selected on the first day of every month. This automatic transfer is free. You can also withdraw payments from your available balance at any time. More information about receiving payments can be found here

 

I hope this information helps,

Bindu
