    2. How long I will take to activate my account by paypal (I mean confirmation procedure time period)…I am from UAE.
    3. Paypal debit card…any price for it? How to get it and can I use this card worldwide on ATM’S…like in countries where paypal is not allowed!

    1. If you wish to receive more than 5 payments in a year from credit cards then I will prefer to go with Premier account otherwise personal will be better.

    2. Activation will be quick. Account will be created on the spot but you need to verify your account with your CC. It will generally take 2-3 days. Actually it depends on your CC company. Here you need to enter the Expuse No which will appear on your CC statement. So once you will get that in your statement just enter that into your account and your account is fully verified now with lifted withdrawal limits :)

    3. You can see the debit card details here.

    If you are planning to receive money through paypal for business purposes then you need a premier/business accounts. A personal account is for someone who only spends on paypal or receive money from friends not amounting to a business and not making money.

    Yes, premier/business account is the way to go since you are using it to do business. Personal account is just that, for personal purposes basically only.

    I would suggest you to start with personal account first and then upgrade it later to premier or business. By this,in the starting stage,you are going to escape from paypal taxes.
    Goodluck with your new paypal account.

    If you do not have a credit card then your account would remain unverified. The credit card is still the most internationally recognized payment tool on the internet. See if you can get a credit card from your bank.

    If your Debit Card is an international Debit Card issued by Visa (not Visa Electron) or Mastercard , you can give it a try. It may work.
