Personal accounts: Macau

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 a non-resident open a personal account in Macau?
It is difficult. Banks serve residents, holders of local ID and people employed in Macau first. A tourist or a remote non-resident is normally turned away, even if willing to place a deposit.
Do I need a Macau residence or work permit?
In practice yes: a local ID card or work permit removes the main obstacle. You will also be asked for proof of address and source of income. Without documents showing your status in Macau, do not count on an account.
Can I open a Macau account remotely?
No, identification is done in person at a branch. You may need to attend with original documents and sometimes an interpreter. Offers to open a Macau account remotely for a flat fee should be treated as a risk.
Does Macau exchange account information?
Yes, Macau signed up to the international standard for automatic exchange, and non-resident account data is reported to the account holder's country of tax residence. It is not a place to hide an account. Plan your home country reporting from the start.
