One visit to the bank. Done right.
Banks in Armenia want to meet you, and they want to understand your money. We prepare the file they ask for, book the slot, and sit next to you in the interview.

Four questions. Your list.
Answer below and the list on the right fills in. Every bank adds its own requests, so treat it as the starting set.

02Do you have an Armenian residence card?
03How much will move through it?
04Are you a US citizen or US tax resident?
Inside the interview.
This is how the conversation usually goes. Nothing in it is hard, if you know it is coming.
Bank questions.
Refused before, or worried you might be? Tell us. We have seen most reasons.
Talk to us firstUsually not. Most banks need to identify a non-resident in person once. Everything before and after that visit we can do for you.
No. Non-residents can open accounts. A residence card makes the file simpler and can change which documents the bank asks for.
It is a personal public service number. Banks often ask for it, or for a certificate saying you have none. We get it for you before the visit.
It depends on your currencies, the countries you deal with and whether you need online banking in English. We tell you which banks fit your case and what each one asks for.
Banks follow international sanctions and anti-money-laundering rules. For some passports they run extra checks, which can add days. A complete, clear file is the best way to shorten it.
Yes. The company opens its account soon after registration. The director usually attends once, with the company papers we prepared.
