FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can a non-resident open a Belgian account?

It is possible with the right documentation and rationale, which we prepare.

Is an EU company required?

Not always, but an EU entity strengthens the application — we advise per case.

Can you guarantee the account will be approved?

No adviser can. Banks decide on their own criteria. We prepare your file to the standard that gives it the best chance and are candid about the options.

Do I have to visit in person?

It depends on the institution and its current procedures. We tell you what is required for your case before you commit.
