I want to use PayPal in Taiwan, an option that PayPal offers. Now I’m not sure about the details required. The PayPal form asks the following:
Bank Name: Union Bank (聯邦銀行) [in my case]
Acc. type: “Checking” or “Saving” [I suppose “saving”, cause the acc. reads: “活期儲蓄存款存摺”]
Bank code: 803 [for “Union Bank”]
Wire Transfer Branch Code:
Beneficiary ID Type: Foreign Passport Holder [obviously]
Beneficiary ID: ARC no.
Acc.no.: [obvious]
When I tried to get my taiwanese bank account added to my Paypal account, I contacted them for help. They told me they weren’t sure where I would find this information and so they called the bank for me. They still could not find the information. In the end they said they would not accept a Taiwanese bank account. However, this may be because I have a Canadian credit card already on my Paypal account. So this may not always be the case, but they seemed to be saying it is too much of a hassle.
