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 bank account abroad?

Yes, but the field has narrowed. Most banks now want a link to the country: residence, property, employment or a sizeable balance. The weaker the connection, the higher the entry threshold.

Can I open a foreign account remotely?

Many fintech providers and some banks onboard remotely with video identification. Conservative banks and private banking arms usually still want you in the branch at least once.

How do I prove source of funds?

With documents: employment contract and payslips, tax returns, sale agreements for assets, proof of dividends or a business sale, a gift deed. Saying the money is savings with nothing to back it does not pass compliance.

Who sees my foreign bank account?

Under CRS your bank reports to its own tax authority, which passes the data to your country of tax residence; the US uses FATCA instead. Whether you also have to notify anyone yourself depends on the rules where you are tax resident.
