If you use PayPal, you agree to comply with all the terms and conditions of the PayPal User Agreement, last updated on Nov 13, 2018. A prior update on April 19, 2018, included changes to account balance functionality, requiring verifying or validating identifying information. Full functionality of account balances requires verification of name, physical address, date of birth and taxpayer identification number.
The Identity Authentication section of the User Agreement states that anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing laws may require that PayPal verify the​ required identifying information if you use certain PayPal services. PayPal reserves the right to close, suspend, or limit access to your PayPal account and/or the PayPal services in the event that, after reasonable enquiries, we are unable to obtain information about you required to verify your identity.
