Ijustcashier Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 I don't recall anything more needed than a bank account and a debit card Why don't you go through the registration process, you will find out pretty quickly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crossy Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Ditto ^^^, I certainly didn't have to provide anything more than banking and debit card details (and my mobile number, but not sure if that was compulsory). It was some years back mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lamkyong Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 i recall i had to access/register P/P THROUGH THEIR Singapore site as opposed the UK to add Thai cards although i read recently they have opened a service/site for Thailand bit vague but may help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffrey346 Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Just register.. All you need is a Thai Debit Card and you're good to go.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Headgame Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 You need a Thai bank account and either a TH credit or debit card. PayPal will make three small deposits to your bank account which you will need to verify with PayPal. Occasionally PayPal will still put a transfer hold on your account and ask for additional proof of idenitity. It's an easy process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use my home issued credit card hooked up with PP for all my purchases less hassle. Never divulge to them that your living in Thailand its none of their business.

NoshowJones Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Don't do it, I got nothing but hassle, everytime I thought, well that should be it, but they always wanted something else, then I was told that's it, then when I tried to use it they wanted something else, I told them to stuff their Paypal where the sun don't shine.

oxo1947 Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Yes it is easy---especially if you already have an existing PP account in another country. I have one in Oz...I have added the UK & Thailand to it. It wasn't a problem--- maybe more difficult if you do not have one at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jobsworth Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 when paypal was run by elon musk it was incredibly difficult to have a paypal account if you had any contact with the far east. since paypal has been taken over by microsoft the whole process has been streamlined. because of this it has taken me 10 years to open a paypal account but all is well now. sorry to say this elon but good luck with spacex.

It'll be in Thai but so are most utility bills and PayPal understands Thai language. 5 year driving license has address on back as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
