Can Foreigners Open a Bank Account in the USA?

Foreigners can open a bank account in the USA once they get an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN).

An ITIN can be used by foreigners and illegal immigrants to open a USA bank account in place of a Social Security Number (SSN).

After you have that sorted out, you have three options for opening your USA bank account.

Business Bank Account Vs Personal Bank Account

A business bank account will make your taxes easier, however, it is possible to get away with using a personal checking account.

I strongly recommend using a business bank account from the beginning to avoid “commingling” your assets, which could put your personal assets at risk if you ever find yourself in legal trouble.

How to Open a Bank Account in the USA

Once you have received your ITIN, you can open a USA bank account online, at an international branch, or at a US branch.

Keep in mind, each option does require you to weigh the advantages and disadvantages to see which method is best for you.

How to Open a USA Bank Account Online

To open a USA bank account online you need to have an ITIN and a few other identification documents.

Keep in mind that you’re not guaranteed to have your application approved when attempting to open an online account.

In fact, a study performed by Magnify Money concluded that while you do have a chance of being approved via an online application for larger banks; the best course of action is to apply by visiting a branch.

How to Open a USA Bank Account at an International Branch

To open a bank account by visiting an international branch, you will need to supply them with the required documents.

The documents you may need include your passport and proof of residence.

While visiting an international branch does increase your chances of having the USA bank account approved, it can still be denied by the US.

This option is recommended for business folks who want to have their finances sorted before they arrive in the US.

How to Open a USA Bank Account at a US Branch

To open a USA bank account at a US branch you’ll need your ITIN, proof of residence, passport, and initial deposit, at the very least.

Many people prefer this route because it’s the easiest and quickest way to get a bank account in the US.
