Is it possible for a non-resident to open a business bank account in the UK or EU ?
The answer is yes, however, it can be a complex process. The level of difficulty may vary depending on the size and type of your business. At Open, we are here to help you through this process and take care of all the required steps for you.
What are the costs associated with our services ?

The cost varies depending on the specific circumstances of your case. We don’t charge any fees until your application is pre-approved by a financial institution or EMI. Once pre-approved, we charge a 50% fee. The remaining 50% will be invoiced once your bank account is established.

On average, the cost ranges from €1,000 to €5,000 per account, which is significantly cheaper compared to similar services on the market.

  • What is the purpose of opening a UK/EU business bank account?
  • Which currencies will you need to use?
  • What is the size and nature of your business?
  • What is the expected monthly volume of transactions?
