As banking policies evolve, we are currently only able to assist specific individuals in the process of opening a bank account. To stay up to date with the latest developments, we will regularly update this FAQ.
If you can affirmatively answer the following questions, we are able to assist you in opening a bank account in Portugal:
- Do you possess a valid passport from one of the listed countries below?
- Are you currently residing in one of the countries listed below?
It is important to note that the countries for your passport and residence can differ, as long as they are both on the list. For example, an individual holding a US passport and living in Brazil would meet the criteria for our bank account opening service.
Please be aware that the bank may require additional information and documentation from citizens of certain countries that are deemed high risk, potentially causing delays in the account opening process.
These policies specifically impact our bank account services; however, we are able to assist anyone in obtaining a NIF.
