    No, you dont need National id and address proof for verifying a PayPal account. It is just enough to have a Credit Card.

    Yeah a credit card is enough
    especially if you are in countries that paypal love like the USA for example

    Just credit card is enough , reason being is paypal belives that your credit card issuing bank must have done all proofs and verification check.
    Also just add your credit card and later on you will have to verify it using 4 digit expuse code.

    after you add your card, paypal will deduct a nominal ~ 0.15$ to 0.25$ and in your billing it will show up as PAYPAL with 4 digit expuse code.
    After you receive the expuse code enter this 4 digit code in your paypal account and its ready as verified account

    Then get a Visa card!Of course you can't withdraw into your credit/debit card or your bank account yet. Only south africans can do so and to some extent Kenyans to their MPESA system.Visa cards work nearly every time.Make sure when Paypal gives you the code,use it immediately!They have a tendency to block cards very very fast.

    yeah, SHE is, apparently
    I just noticed the name LOL

    there's no credit card that can be issued from a local bank in our country as far as I know, so here's the problem
    Paypal seem to not work with a mere credit card

    additionally you know that our country is so retarded in digital money even Western Union is not working (you can only receive)

    I really suggest you to use MoneyBookers instead I don't waste your time with PayPal

    Basically credit card is enough for the paypal verification. However, paypal can ask for your nation ID or bank statement if they think it is necessary

    In order to get your limits lifted you will need to provide more info though.

    As far as I know for users from Algeria they first need to add a Visa card in order to receive payments.
    Why dont you use AlertPay, since it support Algeria?

    Credit card is enough to verify your account, but to lift the limits you need a Pesonal ID and prove your address.
