Do I need to confirm my address on PayPal?

For security reasons, we may be required to confirm your identity.

By taking a phone call or receiving a letter at the address where you receive your card statements, you're demonstrating that you're the owner of that card.

Confirming your address is also one of the verification steps required to lift the limits on your PayPal account.
