PayPal перебирается в Люксембург.
Beginning on 2 July 2007, a new PayPal company, PayPal (Europe) S.à r.l. & Cie, S.C.A. (PayPal Luxembourg), will become the service provider for PayPal in the EU. This is a Luxembourg entity regulated as a bank by the Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (CSSF), the Luxembourg equivalent of the FSA. PayPal Luxembourg will provide the PayPal service throughout the EU.
От клиентов ничего не требуется, кроме чтения новых вариантов:
As of 2 July 2007, PayPal Luxembourg will have a revised User Agreement and Privacy Policy.

The revised User Agreement will help users more easily understand PayPal's terms and conditions and will incorporate many of the policies currently accessed by hyperlinks.

Under the Privacy Policy, PayPal Luxembourg will be the data controller of your personal information as of 2 July 2007 and will provide more details about the third parties to whom PayPal Luxembourg will disclose your personal and account information.

Вообщем, оптимизация налогообложенияю Все хотят в рай, хотя бы налоговый:
The transfer will enable us to market our service to online merchants across Europe and allow consumers to use PayPal in more places and ways across the web. Other eBay group companies, such as Skype and eBay, have an important presence in Luxembourg, so it makes sense for PayPal Europe to co-locate with them.
