Corporate Bank Account Opening

SUPPORT IN OPENING A BANK ACCOUNT

Corporate Bank Account

If you open a company in Dubai, then you will most likley need a company account. This is called a Corporate Bank Account in Dubai and usually includes the following:

  • Online Banking
  • Bank Card
  • Check Book
  • Multi-currency Accounts
  • Credit Card


The requirements for opening a bank account continue to be tightened by the UAE central bank. The respective local banks are of course subject to these regulations and are obliged to implement them accordingly. It basically doesn't matter whether the company in question is based in a free zone or on the mainland, the requirements are usually the same.

IS IT POSSIBLE TO GET A BANK ACCOUNT IN DUBAI?
Due to these tightened measures, the topic is widely discussed in various forums. Many fresh company owners indicate that it is impossible to get a company account with a Freezone company. As already mentioned, it doesn't matter to the bank whether the company was registered in a free zone or on the mainland, the regulations are the same and must be met.

Both types of companies must comply with the same provisions and provide the necessary documents and information. In general, it can be stated that without an Emirates ID (Residence Visa) it is practically impossible to open an account, neither for the company nor privately. So stay away from cheap lure offers that do not include a visa.

CRITERIAS THAT WILL STOP YOU FROM GETTING A BANK ACCOUNT
The selection of the free zone is an important aspect, the wrong decision can lead to a rejection by the bank. There is also many activities that banks have on their black lists. We are aware of those and will advise our clients to choose the right activity.

Another issue is that opening an account is only possible with a high 5 or even 6-digit amount as a deposit. This is true in certain banks and depends entirely on the way the banker fixes this deposit. Therefore the meeting at the bank is very important. A good first impression must be backed with the right documents.

To sum it up, it is important to present the respective company to the bank accordingly and, of course, to provide the requested documents, business plan and information.

WHY ARE ACCOUNTS REJECTED?
The reason why so many bank accounts are being rejected, even after1 year of trying, is mostly due to having been ill advised by the set-up agency. Its a combination of badly chosen company name, black-listed activities, unattractive business plan and not answering the bankers questions the right way.
