Business Paypal in Croatia don't accept any bank account, only US ones.

I've a business account in Croatia. Actually i can't add bank accounts. Only cards. In bank accounts it gives me only the option to add a US bank account..but i don't understand why...i've not a bank in US. Is that normal for Croatian business? We cannot add bank of our country?

Paypal varies country to country on what you can add as a funding source.

In some countries, yours included you can't add a local bank only a card.

You can however in most countries add a U.S bank account (not card) to your Paypal account. This is because Paypal is a U.S company and allows that option for U.S citizens working in other countries.

Thank for the answer..but you don't answered me. It's quite a bot answer. I'm not a US citizen. I can't subscribe a US bank account (why i've to do?).

I'm searching a precise answer to my question for my specific country, not something that i can found in the paypal site.

So. In Croatia is it possible to link a croatian bank account for working with paypal business? Because:

- if the answer is "no", there's really no way to give companies availability about paypal business account for the country

- if the answer is yes, it will be great to know how to

If there, there's someone that operates in Croatia, will sure answer about that. If there's someone of paypal support here can answer too.

Any other answer is something that i can find from myself online like "paypal is US company :-)".

Thank you anyway for the help..but is useless bro.

I have given you the correct answer, WHAT PART OF YOU CAN'T ADD A LOCAL BANK ACCOUNT IN YOUR COUNTRY did you not understand? 

[Spongebob75]

That part: 

Why Paypal gives the possibility to create an account in a country of UE for business and doesn't give the possibility to link the bank account of the company that you register of that country? It there a way to use the account in a business company here? The answer at this point is NO. 

So i think i will close my paypal account and goodbye. Maybe knowing it BEFORE opening will save people a lot of time.

Was interesting if someone that has a company in Croatia will have answered, but in understand that probability they didn't because they don't use.

Thank you for your help on sunday.

Have a nice day.

You can run a business using paypal in Croatia. You just have to use a debit or credit card as a funding source instead of a bank account, not sure why that is a problem for you? However if you don't want to use paypal then that is up to you, matters not one bit to me to be honest.

Hi, i am also from Croatia and i have business account.
I was not able to link a bank, but visa debit card works great.

However, i advise you to think twice for using PayPal for business account,  as for past year PayPal is freezing many business accounts and their customer support is awful.
Many people are complaining and their funds are frozen without possibility to resolve it.

Same happen to me and now im just trying to get my funds back and think about new platform.
