    Can a foreigner setup a US bank account?

    Hi,

    Is it possible for someone English to setup a bank account in the USA and do this all from online?
    maybe spam me a ref code if you have one!

    Need it to manage some of the payments coming through and sick of dealing with paypal's currency conversions.

    Regards.

    We had this question like 5 days ago.

    It's possible to do it through US banks with UK branches. Citi being the best option.

    Otherwise, book a flight because that's your only option.

          no it is not possible...you must come in person to be ID-ed by the bank on US soil...if anybody offers you any alternative then it is not legal...the law is very clear on this....even if you do manage the bank broke a law by allowing you to open an account without proper verification...it does not matter one little bit if the bank has a branch in your country...

            You can do it no problem, but you must do it in person at the bank....



            HOWEVER!!!! I would absolutely advise against banking in the US, as new laws require any person banking in the US to declare income and revenues sources to the IRS.



            DON'T DO IT.

              Anything over 600$ in interest is reported by the bank. But I am quite sure the government will be watching those accounts.

                  Yep...

                  I posted a thread about this... still not really sure if it's doable...

                  I need a US account with a US bank routing number...

                  I think as most people said, due to the laws that was brought in after 9/11 I think it's harder, if not impossible to do so...

                  Also people mentioned there are lots of online scams... so be careful who you do go with, if you can find a solution...

                  If you do find something let me know please

                    Note. Even if you do go to the US and bring ID, a lot of banks want a US mailing address.

                    And no, you can't use your hotel.

                        I'm sure something can be arranged with someone and worked out a way to make it as legal as possible. America loves money even if it despises it's own citizens

                            Set-up with HSBC in the UK 'in branch' and you can get one that way, that's the way I've done it. Doubt you'd get one online.

                              Why would you even want that? Why not just use a bank in your own country? Wires ftw.

                                    My experience says NO, there is not enough documents to make it, if you travel as a tourist. But, if you need that for certain purposes like working with sponsors you can open a Payoneer account and have US Payment Services instead.

                                      No. FATCA and the new IRC's overrule those state regulations. ANY account opened in the US by a non- U.S. citizen is reported to the IRS.
