Opening a bank account in Gibraltar

Hi all,

is it difficult for expats to open a bank account in Gibraltar ?

Which documents are required to open a bank account in Gibraltar ?

How long does it take to open it ?

Is there any restriction for expats regarding the services (loans for instance)  ?

Which bank would you recommend ?

Thanks in advance for your participation,

Julien

Hi, I have just opened an account with natwest and it was really easy. You need to provide your work contract, your tax code details and passport. Not sure about restrictions as i just wanted a basic account with atm card, but i think as long as you can prove you are working i can't see there being any problems.

Thanks for your contribution helenalou78!;)

Hi helenalou78,
since I have to open a bank account in Gib in the next days do you have any ideas about the annual fees? How much do you pay to transfer money to another bank account?

Thank you,
