No. The final decision is made by the bank after KYC, CDD and internal risk assessment.

Does a director need resident status?

Requirements vary. Residence and presence may enhance the profile, but are assessed along with other factors.

How long does the verification take?

The period depends on the bank, structure, industry, completeness of documents and additional questions.

Can I open an account immediately after registration?

You can start preparing early, but the new company must make a compelling case for future operations and funding.

What is the source of funds and capital?

The bank distinguishes between the origin of a specific transfer and the general origin of the owner's wealth. Both require confirmation.

Constituent documents, description of the business, owners, countries and counterparties, expected turnover and source of start-up capital.
