Quite a few posts on the forum (even more recently) about Revolut -perhaps do the forum search and make the choice

Revolut is now a bank after Brexit. They have banking license. They ban a lot of accounts.

the best bank is a major bank of the country where your ebay account is registered

+1. No risk of closed accounts and documents request.

I think "normal" sellers would not use foreign banks at all so that people using Revolut , Monzo , Epayments and any other bank or emoney institution automatically falls under suspicion , which does not mean they can not be used at all but can not be used with stealth details

There definitely will be ID verification for any (major) EU bank, that why folk turn to these online only outfits - to try and avoid verification. Its a legal requirement and the risk of closure is just as great if they suspect you of misuse or fraudulent activity.

And if the bank I want to register doesn't provide VCC? Should I arrange my card elsewhere then and how?

Thank you for your response,

if the Czech Republic does not have ebay PayPal, so I have to register .com, is that a problem?

Thank you,

Yes, ID is requiered from every high street or online bank. I've read here for only one bank account closed for receiving mismatched names payments.

Online bank accounts are being closed much more often then the real bank accounts. Lots of such stories here.

I don't fully understand your question. You can register on any eBay platform such .com, co.uk, .de etc.

You can open a bank account with attached debit card to it.
