So...

I. Contact PayPal:

See if they are still affiliated with Apple (for making payments) in Belgium. Perhaps they are having some bugs going on at the moment. With 13 Results, they mostly seem to be going around PayPal not working for online transactions at the moment. Note that phone calls are a bit backed put according to the site, when you visit it (all due to the COVID-19 Case). So, maybe asking the question on their communities pages would be quicker.

II. Contact Apple Support:

See what they have to say on this payment issue. The Apple Rep would know what is going on, and would run you though the fix.

The Answer Reads: "Paypal is country specific so if someone logs in from other countries paypals security may recognise this as a security issue ie potential hacker and limit your account to prevent that happening."

So... Are you in a different country than where your PayPal account is based out of?

Looks like PayPal is still acceptable for your country - Payment methods that you can use with your Apple ID - Apple Support.
