I have the feeling that AML restrictions goes nuts inside the EU. The main and biggest reasons for that are the Luxleaks, Panama papers (and all other leaks I've forgot... thinking of footballer Ronaldo currently) and jurisdiction within EU (and also outside, see OECD BEPS) changed substantially...

Does somebody have a rough idea about pricing? It seems it is individually.... just want to know what they told you for opening and maintenance?

Yes Worldfirst works. Worldfirst World Account has US bank details (Citibank). It's comparable with Transferwise (no maintenance cost, no monthly cost) but requires more KYC (e.g. they phoned me) and when you want to transfer out it needs to be minimum amount like €200.

Silk Road bank.... why? haha. Stay away from wannabe banks.

Paysend looks interesting, thanks for recommendations. Some first examinations on looking on their terms: * Their parent company is based in Russia. * Because of Russian parent company it's good/better connected to countries like Georgia (even allows USD to Georgia, see here) and Ukraine than...

5% only because EU special economic zone (mainly because it is so remote)

No personal experiences but got report from 2 friends (before somebody asks: no dodgy businesses or transactions). They block account, you need to proof source of funds. Takes 4-6 weeks to unblock. Then everything works as normal. It seems it happens with higher volumes on Paysera out of the...

There is also Madeira (island of Portugal) if you invest 20,000€ somewhere.

* You violate terms of the bank * CRS, your bank in EU reports yearly to their state: Name, address, Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) and date and place of birth of each Reportable Person. Account number Name and identifying number of the reporting financial institution; Account balance or...

Go to Home | Curve - All Your Cards In One it's a meta debit card which can be used instead your bank card.

What do you expect with a Georgian bank account? Nobody ever said it's good for cash withdrawal outside Georgia! Their country and their bank rules. However you can try out: * Put a curve black/metal card in front of your Georgian card. It will allow you free ATM usage to a certain limit. * Top...

ecommbx is more expensive than a Bank of Cyprus IBU account (which costs at least 50 Euro per month as I'm aware). So EMIs exist in Cyprus but for special purposes with special prices. If you e.g. need many IBANs and do a lot of FX, have a lot of employees maybe ecommbx is one soluion (but a...

Get a reputable jurisdiction first! Marshall Islands is so so burned nowadays. Everybody knows it's fishy and certainly every bank knows for sure! Then use Transferwise. And calm down. If you are so worried about EMIs then don't use them. Blocking can even happen on the most reputable banks...

Worldfirst World Account is a viable Transferwise alternative with local bank accounts in many jurisdictions (EU, USA etc.). Have a business bank account for a Cyprus business there. Only problem: No debit card and you can also not transfer small amounts out of it. It is more an account to...

Haha, but the same you can say about the biggest banks in Georgia. From the financial numbers, non performing loans and cash reserves even the best banks in Cyprus combined (they are actually all really bad when looking close at them) are not even close to a e.g. a Bank of Georgia or a TBC.

At least more than Cyprus banks. But I agree I would not use Georgia as first choice. Hong Kong was first class and first choice for a long time... and look at it today. Nowhere it is safe! ;)

Bank of Georgia Wealth (don't confuse that with higher retail banking from them like SOLO, this is beyond SOLO) or just google for "Private banking" or "Visa Infinite" together with "site:.ge" to find alternatives. No experience with any of this because I'm not interested in this.

If you can deposit 100,000 € you can do private banking in Georgia (higher than retail and priority banking) and you get a Visa infinity card. I think they even offer unlimited cash world wide. I agree to the other comments: Why open an account with such a small bank.

That's checked on registering. There is no magic involved. And if you lie you will be banned. Easy.

@Mark34 a little offtopic, but quick question: What is the tax situation with corporation and Bitcoin with Cyprus cooperation? Thanks
