Opening a bank account in Germany
in Banking, Insurance & Loans ·
I suppose setting up the bank account should be fine, but PayPal might still give you some trouble since you aren't actually based in the USA, even if the account is registered there. I guess once you try to withdraw any funds, they might notice you're operating from overseas, and while I'm not saying for certain it'll happen, they could potentially freeze your account.
Of course, that assumes they'll even let you open it in the first place, given the discrepancy between your location and the US-based account. Maybe try calling PayPal directly to see if you can get a straight answer about your specific situation; I've heard it's occasionally possible to actually reach a real customer service rep...
Let me know how it turns out... 🙂
