Here's how to add, change, or remove a street address on the PayPal app:

Tips:

  • You can't change your address to another country or region. If you're moving abroad, you'll need to close your existing account and open a new one in your new country and region of residence.
  • You must have at least 1 address on your account.
  • You can't remove an address until you add a new address and make it the home address. You can't remove an address from your account if it's your credit card billing address.
  • If you're updating an address that's linked to a card on your PayPal account, please update your address with your card issuer first.
  • You may not be able to change the address on a transaction that's processed. If you need to use a different address, you need to contact the merchant.

FAQs:

Will I receive post from PayPal at this address?
Yes, from time to time, you may receive post from us about your account.

My address has more lines than this form will accept. How should I enter it?
Add as much of your address as possible. Remember to enter your physical address first and leave off the PO Box.

Can I use a PO Box as my billing address?
Unfortunately, PO boxes can’t be used as your billing address.
