Stripe — merchant account signup (opening a Stripe account to charge customers)
- Pakistan: Not supported — Pakistan is absent from Stripe's official supported-countries list; no signup, preview, or extended-network path exists. source ↗ · the fix →
- Nigeria: Limited — Listed on stripe.com/global only as 'Extended network' served via Stripe-owned Paystack (acquired Oct 2020) — a separate product requiring a Nigerian business; no native Stripe account can be opened. source ↗ · the fix →
- India: Invite-only — Labeled 'Preview' on stripe.com/global; Stripe's help page states 'Stripe services are invite-only in India' with signup only via a Sales invite prioritizing export-focused businesses — policy announced May 31, 2024 and still in effect; existing Indian accounts continue to work. source ↗ · the fix →
- Bangladesh: Not supported — Bangladesh is absent from Stripe's official supported-countries list. source ↗ · the fix →
- Turkey: Not supported — Turkey is absent from Stripe's official supported-countries list, with no preview or extended-network status. source ↗ · the fix →

- Vietnam: Not supported — Vietnam is absent from Stripe's official supported-countries list. source ↗ · the fix →
- Indonesia: Invite-only — Labeled 'Preview' on stripe.com/global; Stripe's help page says 'Stripe is available in Indonesia as an invite-only program', and even admitted accounts cannot process cross-border/international transactions (local IDR only). source ↗ · the fix →

PayPal — PayPal Business account: ability to RECEIVE payments (not just send/withdraw)
- Pakistan: Not supported — Pakistan is absent from PayPal's Worldwide country list and paypal.com/pk falls back to the US site — residents cannot open any PayPal account, so receiving is impossible (the 2025 SBP–Payoneer bridge lets PayPal senders pay Pakistani freelancers via Payoneer, without a PayPal account). source ↗ · the fix →
- Nigeria: Limited — Receiving was enabled in early 2026 (live account linking announced Jan 27, 2026): PayPal's NG help center now instructs new Nigerian customers to link a licensed local partner bank (Paga) to receive money, with USD-balance withdrawal to Naira via the partner — but the NG site still markets send/shop only and PayPal-branded merchant checkout for Nigerian businesses is not documented. source ↗
- India: Limited — Indian accounts can receive international (cross-border) payments only — requiring PAN verification, an Indian bank account, and an RBI purpose code with forced INR settlement — because PayPal discontinued domestic payment services in India effective April 1, 2021. source ↗
- Bangladesh: Not supported — Bangladesh is absent from PayPal's Worldwide country list and paypal.com/bd falls back to the US site — no PayPal accounts of any kind (only Xoom inbound remittances), so receiving is impossible. source ↗ · the fix →
- Turkey: Not supported — PayPal halted all Turkey operations in June 2016 after the BDDK refused its license, and the suspension notice ('we stopped our operations in Turkey as of June 2016') is still live on paypal.com/tr as of July 2026. source ↗ · the fix →
- Egypt: Limited — Egyptian accounts can receive payments, but PayPal's Egypt-specific help article requires confirming a Visa card or a US bank account to accept money and force-transfers the entire balance to that card/US bank on the first day of every month — no balance holding and no local EGP bank withdrawal. source ↗
- Vietnam: Supported — Receiving is documented in PayPal's Vietnam help center (funds can be held in balance or transferred to a bank), and the VN site is a full send-and-request market. source ↗
- Indonesia: Supported — Receiving is documented in PayPal's Indonesia help center and the ID site is a full send-and-request market ('Kirim & Minta Pembayaran'). source ↗
- Brazil: Supported — Brazil is a full PayPal market (local entity, CPF/CNPJ-verified accounts); received balances auto-transfer to the linked local bank account with automatic BRL conversion for foreign-currency payments. source ↗
- Nepal: Not supported — Nepal is on PayPal's Worldwide list and paypal.com/np is live, but only as a send/shop consumer market — the 'receive money' help article is unpublished for the NP locale and Nepal is not in PayPal's partner-bank receive program (HELP1010 lists only Nigeria, Tanzania, Sri Lanka, Maldives) — so accounts exist but cannot receive. source ↗
- Saudi Arabia: Supported — Receiving is documented in PayPal's Saudi Arabia help center (balance can be held or transferred to bank) and the SA site is a send-and-request market served by PayPal Pte. Ltd. (Singapore). source ↗
- United Arab Emirates: Supported — Receiving is documented in PayPal's UAE help center and the AE site is a full send-and-request market. source ↗
- Morocco: Supported — Receiving is documented in PayPal's Morocco help center and the MA site includes Request Money, though PayPal docs do not confirm current withdrawal paths (historically limited to US bank accounts). source ↗

TikTok Shop (US) — TikTok Shop US seller account registration for foreign/non-resident founders
- Pakistan: Not supported — No direct TikTok Shop US registration from Pakistan: TikTok requires the applicant to reside in the USA with a US-issued ID, and the only cross-border lane into the US shop is limited to Mainland China/Hong Kong enterprises; Pakistan also has no local TikTok Shop market. source ↗

Amazon KDP payouts — Non-US author royalty payouts (direct deposit vs Payoneer/Wise vs check) and US tax withholding / W-8BEN treaty rates on KDP
- Pakistan: Supported — Direct deposit in PKR to Pakistani banks (no minimum threshold) is listed on KDP's Payment Options page, and the US-Pakistan treaty gives a 0% withholding rate on copyright royalties (Art. VIII(1)) with W-8BEN + foreign TIN — one of the best-treated countries on KDP. source ↗
- Nigeria: Limited — No direct deposit — KDP offers only wire transfer in NGN (~$100-equivalent minimum per marketplace) or an approved PSP (Payoneer/Wise officially participate); withholding is the full 30% since Nigeria has no US tax treaty. source ↗
- India: Supported — Direct deposit in INR (no minimum threshold) per KDP's Payment Options page; US-India treaty rate on copyright royalties is 15% (Art. 12) via W-8BEN with Indian PAN accepted as foreign TIN. source ↗
- Bangladesh: Limited — Bangladesh is not a supported bank location (no EFT or wire) — payout is paper check (US$100 threshold) or an approved PSP such as Payoneer/Wise; US-Bangladesh treaty reduces withholding to 10% on copyright royalties (Art. 12(2)). source ↗
- Turkey: Limited — Turkey/Türkiye does not appear as a supported bank location on KDP's Payment Options page (checked July 2026) — check or approved PSP only — but the US-Turkey treaty gives a favorable 10% rate on copyright royalties (Art. 12(2)). source ↗

- Vietnam: Limited — Vietnam is not a supported bank location (check or approved PSP only), and withholding stays at 30% because the 2015 US-Vietnam treaty never entered into force and is absent from IRS Tax Treaty Table 1 (Rev. May 2023, still current). source ↗
- Indonesia: Supported — Direct deposit in IDR (no minimum threshold) per KDP's Payment Options page; US-Indonesia treaty rate on copyright royalties is 10% (Art. 13(2)). source ↗
- Brazil: Limited — BRL direct deposit is offered only for Amazon.com.br royalties; all other marketplaces pay Brazilian-bank authors by cross-border USD wire (~$100 minimum) or approved PSP, and withholding is 30% as Brazil has no US tax treaty (plus separate Brazilian withholding on .com.br sales). source ↗

- Nigeria: Not supported — Nigeria has never been on the Etsy Payments eligible list, so new-shop onboarding is blocked ('If you don't see your country in the dropdown... selling on Etsy isn't available in your country'), and legacy standalone-PayPal shops were closed on Aug 5, 2025. source ↗
- India: Limited — Listed as 'India*' (Payoneer) since Oct 17, 2023, but export-only: 'Indian shops enrolled in Etsy Payments cannot accept domestic sales', digital items cannot be sold to buyers in India, and onboarding requires a valid GSTIN plus a one-time $10 setup fee (verified via 2025-08-28 capture). source ↗
- Bangladesh: Not supported — Bangladesh is not on the Etsy Payments eligible list (verified via 2026-05-26 capture), so new shops cannot be opened; the standalone-PayPal fallback for non-eligible countries ended with the Aug 5, 2025 shop closures. source ↗

Wise / Payoneer — individual USD receiving account (US ACH routing + account number) via Wise Business/personal or Payoneer, for residents of the country

- India: Limited — Wise offers Indian residents balance-holding only 'when travelling overseas' (no home USD receiving account); Payoneer India provides USD/EUR/GBP receiving accounts with digital FIRC/e-FIRA, but under RBI rules earnings are withdrawn to a local INR bank account rather than held in USD. source ↗

- Nepal: Limited — Wise unavailable — Nepal is absent from Wise's hold-money list; Payoneer has an active documented Nepali user base on its own community forums but publishes no Nepal-specific availability doc, so treat as available-but-confirm-at-signup (thinnest documentation of the 13). source ↗
- Saudi Arabia: Supported — Both work — Saudi Arabia is on Wise's hold-money list with no restriction asterisk (personal and business) and is not USD-excluded, so residents get USD ACH details; Payoneer is generally available though no KSA-specific Payoneer documentation or local license was found. source ↗
