It
is getting more and more complicated to open a
company bank account abroad nowadays. Instead of
presenting a list of available banks/countries
we have decided to gather basic information from
your side prior to offering you a suitable bank(s).
Our recommendation will be based on the information
we received from you.
Kindly let us know the
following details:
- basic details about
your company (country and date of registration)
- nationality of company
director(s), shareholder(s) and beneficial owner(s)
- main business activities
of the company
- who will open and
manage the account
- preferred type of
account (current, deposit or investment account)
- preferred currency
(US$, EUR, GBP, CHF or other)
- preferred account
management (phone, fax or internet banking)
- acceptable maximum
opening deposit
- estimated monthly
turnover
Bank accounts can be
opened by mail or in person. Every bank will request
original company documents affixed with an Apostille.
The standard set usually contains Certificate of
Incorporation, Memorandum & Articles of Association,
Appointment of First Directors and Officers and
Power of Attorney if the account is not being opened
by one of Directors. Of course company documents
may vary depending on the country where the company
was incorporated. If the company is older than
12 months, most banks insists on a Certificate
of Good Standing as well.
