Purpose Code Mandatory<\/h3>\n

\"paypal<\/p>\n

A year back the purpose code was introduced<\/a> and was only required when you needed to withdraw<\/em> money to your bank account. Recently, Paypal India made it compulsory for Indian users to add the 3 requirements<\/a>\u00a0to withdraw money.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. PAN or Permanent Account Number<\/strong><\/li>\n
  2. Purpose Code<\/strong><\/li>\n
  3. Bank account in India<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Many users fail to use the purpose code. But now you need to enter the purpose code also in order to continue recieving funds<\/em>. This is to comply with RBI guidelines in India in order to receive export-related payments into your Paypal account and withdraw money. The Paypal FAQ clearly state that “Your account will be limited from receiving payments<\/strong>, in case you fail to do so.”<\/p>\n

    Auto-withdrawal\u00a0to Bank Accounts<\/h3>\n

    Remember as per recent Paypal restrictions<\/a>,\u00a0PayPal users in India are not allowed to hold money in their PayPal account as balance. Instead, all payments received into your PayPal account must be withdrawn to your linked bank account in India. So what if you don’t withdraw the money?<\/p>\n

    The FAQ reveals that now your funds will be auto withdrawn to your bank account<\/strong> in India, but that requires PAN, Purpose code and Bank Account. Once your data is complete, Paypal can transfer money to your bank account automatically to comply with\u00a0Indian regulatory requirements.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
