To increase the security of the eBay and PayPal community, we require sellers to confirm their identity before they can sell their items internationally. |
|
|
|
|
2 important things: |
|
|
Confirming your identity is only required the first time you list an item. If you have not confirmed your identity with eBay and PayPal, you will not be permitted to list your items internationally. Your listings will be saved for 30 days so you can return and complete them without having to start all over again. |
|
|
|
Please note only electronic forms of payment are permitted on eBay. This means either PayPal or merchant credit card accounts. Learn more about PayPal. |
|
|
|
|
In order to complete listing your items, follow these 3 easy steps: |
|
|
|
|
Submit your bank details to prompt PayPal to send 2 small deposits to your bank account |
|

Important information when signing up for PayPal: |

up with PayPal, we recommend that you
enter an email address that matches
the one used in the eBay listing process
for how you’d like to be paid - this
is where payments will be sent to you.
Please note after you create your PayPal
account, you can add up to 8 email addresses
on your account, should you decide to
change this at a later time. |
