What do you need to open a bank account?
Setting up a corporate bank account involves demonstrating to the financial institution that your company is well-structured and established. Thus, banks typically require you to provide evidence of a clear business plan, as well as past results and financial records. Additionally, they will likely ask for information about where your suppliers and customers are located.
Opening a corporate bank account requires some key documents to be submitted to the financial institution. These include proof of identity, proof of address, business registration certificate, company memorandum/articles of association, and evidence of authorized signatories. The requirements may vary from one bank to another; however, these are the most common ones for a corporate account.
Submitting original or certified copies of the company’s documents such as business licenses, articles of incorporation, and board resolutions that have been approved by the regulatory authority; Passport copy (sometimes legalized) for every shareholder & director of the company; Proof of living address (i.e. utility bill or bank statement not older than 3 months); Detailed business description, and in some cases a business plan (depending on the specific bank); Certificate of good standing.
