Can I access my PayPal account from a US-sanctioned country?

[Ayoodeh]

If I traveled to a country that is sanctioned by the US, can I login to my PayPal account there through the application and use it to send and recieve money, or will PayPal suspend my account because I use it in a US-sanctioned country and consider me as violating their terms of use? P.S.: I don't know if the application will work there in the first place!

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.

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.

You can however in some countries add a U.S bank account (not card) to your paypal account. This is because paypal is a U.S company.
If you have that option then it should show in your paypal wallet.
