Needs for a Bank Account

Let's consider some parties that may need a bank account:

  • Non-residents may be interested in opening a bank account to live comfortably here. It is possible for them to open one under certain conditions discussed later.
  • Mainland and Freeland companies need bank accounts to operate in the UAE.
  • Businesses and traders may need services like bank guarantees. A bank guarantee is where a bank guarantees one trader that their client will make the payment. If the client fails to make the guaranteed payment, then the bank will make the same. The banks will conduct a risk analysis before providing such a bank guarantee, and our bank account opening assistance helps you ensure you get that.
  • Local citizens too can go for bank account opening services in Dubai.

First Step Group provides the best bank account opening assistance in UAE for all these groups.

Expats That Can Open a Bank Account

  • You are an investor in a Freezone or Mainland UAE corporation. You can also get an investor visa if you are such an investor.
  • If you are an expat with a freelancing visa - A freelancing visa itself requires a freelance permit, and the two allow you to live and work in UAE for one to five years.
  • You can also acquire Emirates ID by investing at least 2 million AED in properties, which will also get you a two-year visa.

There are a few other caveats as well, including the nationality of the individual, and the banker may also require more information. If you are an expat, just get in touch with First Step Group for this assistance.
