Requirements to Open a PayPal Business Account in the U.S.
1. Form a U.S. Entity
The first step is establishing a legal business entity in the U.S. You can form your company in any state. After your business is formed, you will receive a “Certificate of Formation,” which verifies your company’s existence. Additionally, you’ll need a valid business address to receive mail and a registered agent address.

2. Obtain Tax ID Numbers
You will need two tax identification numbers:
•Employer Identification Number (EIN): This number identifies your business for tax purposes.
•Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN): This is for individuals who are not eligible for a Social Security Number but need a U.S. tax ID.
Start by applying for your EIN, and then apply for your ITIN (which can take up to 16 weeks).
(We can assist you with obtaining your ITIN in just two easy steps. Contact us at info@delawareagency.com)
3. Apply for a PayPal Business Account and Verify Your Business
Once you have your U.S. company and tax IDs, the fun part begins! You can apply for your PayPal business account and verify your business. PayPal will send a debit card to your registered business address (yes, international shipping is available).
