Business accounts: The Bahamas

An honest assessment before work starts, the quote is fixed in writing.

We assess your chances against your profile, prepare the compliance file, help you present your source of funds properly and handle communication with the bank until it decides. The final decision always rests with the bank, so no one can guarantee an opening - careful preparation simply improves the odds.

We quote the exact cost for this country after a short consultation: it depends on the bank and your residency. The quote is fixed in writing before work starts.

FAQ

Can I open a bank account for a Bahamas company?
Formally yes, but banks screen hard: they want a clear line of business, real counterparties and a transparent ownership chain. Shell companies with no operations are refused regularly, including in their own jurisdiction of incorporation.
What is the minimum deposit for a corporate account in the Bahamas?
The sector is built around wealthy and institutional clients, so entry thresholds are high and vary by bank. For a small business the fees and balance requirements usually make no economic sense.
Do Bahamas companies need economic substance and reporting?
Yes. Economic substance requirements apply to several categories of activity, there is a beneficial ownership register, and filings are mandatory. The idea of a paper company with no obligations is a decade out of date.
Can I open a Bahamas account without visiting?
Sometimes, through a licensed intermediary with remote identification, but the bank can still insist on a meeting or a video call. Expect a much heavier document pack than at an ordinary retail bank.
