- For most countries, Bejarano ADF Consultants can open a corporate bank account without our Client travelling. However, as you can appreciate, it is difficult to obtain bank account approval for a newly-formed company when shareholders and directors and bank signatories reside overseas. Bejarano ADF Consultants will prepare a business plan for the bank, to optimise the probability of corporate bank account approval. If our Client must travel for corporate bank account opening, Bejarano ADF Consultants will refund our Client US$950;
- That said, Tier 1 banks are less welcoming of international entrepreneurs because i) Tier 1 banks increasingly prefer to onboard medium to large-sized Clients and ii) they prefer to onboard companies incorporated in the country where the bank operates. Where Tier 1 banks are not an option for our Clients, Bejarano ADF Consultants offer Tier 2 bank solutions around the world;
- Global banks continue to tighten corporate bank account opening procedures, their internal compliance departments completing more thorough due diligence of Clients. Consequently, our Clients should expect bank account approval to take up to four weeks. Furthermore, global banks now require evidence of proof of business, including sales contracts or lease agreement, in the country where the corporate bank account will be;
- Opening an international corporate account has become increasingly difficult since 11 September 2001. Banks are requesting increasing amounts of due diligence information related to the company’s activities, as well personal information about shareholders and directors. Opening an international corporate bank account is therefore also time-consuming, taking many months in some jurisdictions;
- Bejarano ADF Consultants’ global corporate bank account opening services are not designed to facilitate tax avoidance or avoid antimony laundering/financing of terrorism regulations. It is important our Clients’ are aware of their personal and corporate tax obligations in their country of residence and domicile as well as if they are required by tax authorities of their country of residency to disclose corporate bank accounts and assets held abroad. Let us know if you need Bejarano ADF Consultants help to clarify your local and international annual tax and reporting obligations.
