    You need provide some extra business information than personal account.
    The VAT number is requested if you want to tax exemption.

    Hope it helps.

    you can use your personal account as a business account, which I did myself and was accepted by Paypal. For instance, if you are sole trader and have not opened a business account with a bank, you can set aside one of your personal bank accounts and use it for business.But it's important to separate your business and personal transactions for accounting reasons.

    You don't need to be TAX or VAT registered, but it will certainly help when opening a paypal business account as it gives your application more credibility

    You need to have a firm/company established to have a business paypal account. The company name can be either a proper company name or even your own name but it is always ideal to have it different than your own name... just for the sake of keeping personal transactions different from that of business! :)

    For Business, if you want to withdraw money to bank account, you need company bank account details and not your individual bank details. VAT Number is requested upon tax exemption.

    Of course..you can... but for withdrawal, you will need a bank account with the same name. And also on limitation, you will be required to submit documents supporting the existence of such a company! :(
