Frequently Asked Questions:
If you’re reading this page, you might have a few questions about how GlobalBanks USA works and whether it’s the right solution for you.
So, here are a few of the most frequently asked questions we receive and the answers:
Can foreign non-residents and foreign businesses open bank accounts in the US remotely?
Yes! Through GlobalBanks USA, foreign non-resident individuals, foreign businesses, and US businesses owned by foreigner non-residents can all open US bank accounts 100% remotely.
Can I open a personal bank account remotely as a foreign non-resident?
Yes! While most US banks require an in person visit to open accounts, the GlobalBanks team has made several remote account options available to foreign non-residents from around the world.
Can I open a US business bank account remotely as a foreign non-resident?
Yes! Similar to personal accounts, our team has worked with several banks to unlock remote account opening options for businesses of varying sizes and turnover. These accounts can be opened 100% remotely and do not require a local signatory!
Do I need a US LLC to open a US bank account?
No! Contrary to what most service providers tell you, it is possible to open a business bank account for foreign and offshore companies. Of course, there are more options available when you have a US LLC, but if you want a bank account for a foreign business it’s entirely possible!
What types of businesses can open a US bank account?
We have US banking options available for business registered in the United States, registered outside of the United States, and even registered in offshore jurisdictions. Of course, the specific options vary and normal account opening scrutiny still applies.
Do I need a US address to apply for a US bank account?
That depends! In most instances, you will need a US address in order to apply for a bank account. But don’t worry, our US banking reports walk you through all of the options and important mistakes to avoid. That said, in some instances, it won’t be required — it just depends on the bank that you choose to apply to.
Do I need an SSN or ITIN to apply for an account?
No! Contrary to what everyone thinks, you do not need a US SSN or ITIN to apply for a US bank account. You will, of course, need to provide a tax ID number from your country of residence. But, this is the same requirement that you’ll face opening an account anywhere in the world.
Can I connect services like Stripe and PayPal to my account?
Yes! Not only can you connect such services to your account, certain banks will help you open payment processing accounts directly. This is possible because GlobalBanks works with a number of different banks — including some of the best business banks in the USA for small to medium sized businesses!
How much do I need to deposit when opening an account?
That entirely depends on the type of account you want to open and the bank you choose to open with. And, as always in banking, there is a very wide range of banking options available. Remote account opening deposits start at US $25,000 and go up to US $200,000.
Is this safe and legal?
Yes, 100%!
While it is incredibly difficult to open US bank accounts as a foreigner or non-resident, it is 100% legal and safe — especially when you’re working with a team of experts like GlobalBanks to help you navigate the account opening process!
How does the account opening process work?
After you complete the free application, our team will review and confirm if you qualify to open a US bank account through our services.
If you qualify, you will place your order and then complete a short questionnaire to help our team better understand your client profile and banking objectives.
Then, we’ll share the US banking options that match your requirements and profile, and we’ll make sure you have all the information you need to make an informed decision.
After you choose which bank you want to open with, our team will get you started with the account opening process — it’s really that easy!
