Having the wrong birth date on your PayPal account can be frustrating, especially if it is a simple typo. Unfortunately, PayPal does not have a specific avenue to change your date of birth. One way to submit the correct paperwork and correct the error is to use the Name Change page. PayPal offers a way to upload copies of your documents, along with a cover page stating the reasons for the change. This works to change your date of birth as well; then you simply wait for PayPal to review the information.
