Bank Accounts

Bank Accounts

One of the first and most crucial tasks that you will need to undertake in order to establish a company is to open a bank account in your country of choice. Opening bank accounts sounds easy, but unfortunately very often this is not the case.

Opening the Bank Account

In order to open bank accounts, quite a number of institutions require applicants to visit the bank in person. That’s fine if you’re a French company and you want to open an account in Paris, however, it’s not quite as convenient for those of us living outside France. Other banks insist that you provide them with a letter of introduction, duly translated and certified, from another bank. Again, this is fine if you are fluent in the local language and have a good understanding of what’s required, but can be cumbersome and expensive.
