IMPORTANT: Please compare closely with competing offers as most of our competitors only forward you the banking applications for you to then complete sometimes even leaving you to deal with the bank directly. This is not an easy process and will take you weeks if not months to get the account opened, if you do at all. The process is much different than walking into your local banking branch and opening an account. Application forms/banking requirements can be confusing and clients nearly always make mistakes without any assistance. We have banking experts on staff who do nothing but liaise with our customers and our many banking partners around the world allowing the process to be as smooth and efficient as possible. You will not find any competitor offering a higher level of service in relation to opening your offshore bank account.

Our banking introduction fees include the following:

  • completion of the relevant application forms on behalf of the client which are then forwarded to the client by email in a fillable "PDF" form to complete any missing items
  • final review of the application forms before they are printed, signed and sent in with the other supporting documents (so you only need to send us one courier)
  • drafting of banking and debit card resolutions
  • courier fees for delivery to the relevant bank
  • certified/notarised copies of individual and corporate documents required by the bank (for several associated parties additional fees may apply)
  • liaising with the bank, providing follow up information and anything else required until the final decision of the bank
  • assistance with 1 additional banking application including all of the above items if for some reason you are turned down with the first preferred bank

In addition to allowing us to certify documents and open accounts with no visit to the bank from our clients, our top banking partners will process applications and open accounts based off of scans sent by us to the bank (with originals to follow).This can save up to an additional week in processing time for non-Seychelles banks. This privilege is only offered to respected and trusted firms like Sterling Offshore Limited.
