Ideas for business account (GBP) for UAE business?

[K12AN]

Hi
LeuPay have stopped servicing the UAE.
Are there any EMI's which offer GBP accounts for countries outside EEA - specifically UAE?

Really let down by LeuPay, as it was a great solution and I referred lots of people to their service.
No I can no longer to this.

You can try with ADCB bank in Jersey but you need at least AED 100k. Never used them but had shortlisted them.

I know about Starling Bank, which works only with GBP. But you will need to establish a partnership for purpose of the opening account.

I always thought starling bank was for UK citizens and businesses only?

At Banq site they write that: " We offer business accounts to businesses registered in the Netherlands".

Bunq only supports Netherlands, Germany and Austria companies and offers only Euro accounts. They won't be taking UAE companies.

@K12AN

Maybe you should think about an European company if it s so difficult for UAE company to get account even at emi's .
Maybe use it as a "filter" to get the GBP and then send them to UAE if you want.
