Banking for movers & new arrivals
Opening a bank account is one of the first hurdles after moving. Some providers let newcomers open accounts before or shortly after arrival, while traditional banks may need proof of address and local documents.
Who it helps
- New arrivals who need an account to receive salary and pay rent.
- People who cannot yet meet traditional proof-of-address requirements.
- Anyone managing money across more than one currency during a move.
When to use it
- Before or shortly after arrival, to receive your first salary.
- When you cannot yet satisfy a traditional bank's documentation.
- When you need to hold or move money in multiple currencies.
What to check first
- What documents are required and whether you qualify as a newcomer.
- Fees, including monthly charges, ATM, and currency-conversion costs.
- Whether the account is covered by a relevant deposit-protection scheme.
- Whether it is a fully licensed bank or an e-money provider, and what that means for you.
