As Dubai resident, when opening accounts remotely (such as IB, Saxo, SQ, Schwab, etc) is it required to notarize the submitted documents (Passport, EID, EJARI, etc)?
Depend on your Broker/Bank....Most swiss based required Notarized passport if It does not contain MRZ
To open an account you will need to have a document (passport / ID card) that contains a machine readable zone (MRZ) and visible security features. If your document does not contain MRZ zone and/or does not contain holographic signs you can send a certified copy of your document via regular post to our head office in Geneva.
