PayPal has requested that I verify my identity using either my SSN or ITIN. However, I do not have either of these because I am not a U.S. resident—I am from Pakistan. My company, however, is registered in the United States, specifically in the state of New Mexico. When I created my PayPal account, it was for business purposes, and I used my EIN to register it.
Additionally, I have complied with all necessary legal requirements for my U.S.-registered business, including submitting my BOI report. Given that my PayPal account was created for my company, I would like to know if my EIN and BOI report can be used to fulfill PayPal’s verification requirements, as these documents are directly tied to my business.
