Why I Can't add my EURO bank account with my Hungarian Businness account

Hi, 

I tried to link my EURO bank account to my Hungarian business account but I got a message saying "You can only link a bank account in Hungarian Forints." however, Hungary is within the EU and uses EURO beside the FORINT currency, and they allow opening EURO account for personal and business.  How can I resolve this? are the rules for Hungary outdated or Paypal doesn't know that Hungary is within EU? 

Thanks in advance

Paypal is country specific and you can only add a local bank account.

You may be in the EU but the euro is not your local currency is it, the forint is.

The only time you can add a different bank account is if you are offered the option to add a U.S bank account, paypal allows that in some countries as paypal is a U.S company.
