Paypal is the safe way to send or receive money
worldwide. you can use paypal to buy or sell item on ebay. you need to have a debit card (Visa, master, solo, switch) and able to setup a
direct debit . ( i think most of SL bank cards come with Direct debit function). once you fill the details paypal will deposit a small amount in your bank account. in my case it was £ 0.14 and £0.03 equal to
Rs.50 FREE 
. so you will have to confim this two amounts to paypal after checking the bank statment to prove that the bank account is yours. thats all you have to do. your country doesn't matter as long as you have debit card from your bank.
ask your bank for more details

and welcome to paypal
only bad thing with paypal is they charge a fee of 3.4% to withdraw money (when you receive money from other accounts

)
