If character varying is used without length specifier, the type accepts strings of any size
but varchar does not accept more than this 10485760 value
create table test(id serial primary key, str varchar(10485761));
ERROR: length for type varchar cannot exceed 10485760
as thomas said that
Further down on that page the overall limit is documented:
In any case, the longest possible character string that can be stored is about 1 GB
So the part that you quoted implicitly means "accepts strings of any size - up to the maximum of 1GB" Maybe it makes sense to make that clearer at that point.
was there any specific reason that you have given max length for varchar is limited to 10485760 value?
why you have not given max length for varchar is unlimited like text datatype ?
character varying(n), varchar(n)variable-length with limit
