Creating and verifying a PayPal account in Nepal involves a few additional steps compared to some other countries. Please note that PayPal’s policies and procedures can change, so it’s always a good idea to check their official website for the most up-to-date information. As of my last knowledge update in January 2022, here is a general guide:
Creating a PayPal Account in Nepal:
- Visit the PayPal website: Go to the official PayPal website by typing “paypal.com” in your web browser’s address bar.
- Choose your account type: Select the type of account you want to create – “Personal” or “Business.”
- Enter your email address: Provide a valid email address that you will use for your PayPal account. Make sure it’s an email you can easily access.
- Create a password: Choose a strong and secure password for your PayPal account.
- Fill in your personal information: Enter your legal first and last name, address, and phone number. Ensure that the information matches your official documents.
- Choose your nationality and date of birth: Select Nepal as your nationality and enter your correct date of birth.
- Agree to the terms and conditions: Read and accept PayPal’s terms and conditions by checking the box or clicking the designated button.
- Link a Bank Account or Credit/Debit Card: PayPal may require you to link a bank account or credit/debit card to your account for verification and transactions. Follow the on-screen instructions to add this information. Note that not all Nepali banks may be supported, so check if your bank is listed.
Verifying Your PayPal Account in Nepal:
- Confirm Your Email Address: After completing the registration process, PayPal will send a confirmation email. Open the email and click on the provided link to confirm your email address.
- Link and Confirm Your Bank Account: To fully verify your PayPal account, you’ll likely need to link and confirm your bank account. PayPal will make small deposits into your bank account, and you’ll need to verify these amounts on the PayPal website.
- Provide Additional Documents (if requested): In some cases, PayPal may request additional documents for identity verification. This could include a copy of your passport or national ID card.
- Complete the Verification Process: Follow any additional instructions provided by PayPal to complete the verification process.

Remember that the specific steps and requirements might change, so it’s essential to check the latest information on the PayPal website or contact PayPal customer support for assistance tailored to your situation. Additionally, be cautious of any third-party services claiming to facilitate PayPal account creation, as they may not be reliable or secure.
