    So it seems PayPal wasn't able to renew its licenses with the Turkish government so from June 6th, the Turkish PayPal will discontinue and those will have to seek alternative payments options.

    The only option would be to withdraw your PayPal balance to your card (sending & receiving payments will not be possible).

    From the website it looks like they will continue trying to get a new license in place which will allow them to re-enter the country but who knows how long that will take :(

    or to get as many Turkish Paypal users as possible to lobby your Government to get either the license renewed.

    That sucks. We have clients in Turkey. I'm sure this will cause some problems.
