Open and Operate a Free and Legal USA Non-Resident Bank Account
with VISA
ATM/Debit Card

Until we receive clarification, we have stopped publishing our own US Bank Account Report; this account is no longer available to nationals or residents of certain regions or countries.


The best alternative is Valis International who offer a US bank account as part of their services to those who want to establish a company or business 'identity' in the USA.

What I can also recommend is a confidential report from a reliable colleague about the 'ins and outs' of offshore banking.

It gives invaluable advice and some little-known but attractive alternatives to a US non-resident bank account.


THIS RELATES TO THE ACCOUNT PREVIOUSLY RECOMMENDED AND CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE TO SOME US NON-RESIDENTS:

Opening a non-resident bank account in the USA

Reports or programs are offered at all sorts of prices for the opening of a bank account in the USA for residents and citizens of other countries. Some of these cost several hundred dollars; a few offer additional facilities such as company incorporation, proxy mailing addresses etc; certain US banks require a large deposit or minimum balance and charge high service fees.

For those that want basic current account facilities, there's no need to get involved in unnecessary expense for fees, startup charges, minimum deposits etc. when a bank account can be opened at virtually no cost.

Since the Patriot Act came into force, American banks cannot open accounts for non-US Citizens online, via email or fax. Applications can only be made on paper and sent with supporting documents by mail (or courier).

The bank account can normally be set up and running within 7-10 days.

There are several easy ways to purchase this report: by credit card using PayPal or AlertPay or ePay. E-gold is no longer acceptable as it is an elaborate scam operation which has caused us loss, without explanation or recourse by closing our account. See below.

Who needs to open a bank account in the USA and what are the main benefits?

A US bank account is very useful for internet marketers and affiliates. Many business owners operate globally today and need to be able to accept payments for selling their own or affiliate vendor products; they may need to pay for online services such as advertising and marketing.

Some affiliate marketers are based in countries where international banking transactions are restricted by their own governments, or where the country itself is on a 'blacklist' due to fraudulent activities of some of its citizens. An example is the Philippines, where PayPal and ClickBank prevent residents (including foreigners who are living there) from opening accounts or receiving payments there.

Visa Card LogoOperating a US-based bank account with a VISA debit card alleviates problems that many businesses have, especially those outside the USA. One important feature is the ability to draw cash from any ATM where the VISA (PLUS) network operates. There are now over a million of these cash dispensers in 170 countries throughout the world.

Disclosure. The author of this comprehensive report, which includes instructions and application forms, has lived, worked and held bank accounts and VISA cards in different countries on several continents over the past forty years, and has found no problems with the recommended bank or the bank account he has held for three years. Apart from their excellent service, there is no incentive, financial or otherwise, for passing on this information or recommendation.

Main features of this US non resident bank account:

  • Minimal documentation needed for opening the account: copy of a passport or other ID and evidence of a residential address outside the USA such as a utilities bill, bank or credit card statement etc. showing this address. These do not have to be formally certified.

  • No intermediary or 'third party' involved in the account application;

  • Full online banking and all the features of a normal checking account and more;

  • Checks and deposits and transfers within the USA as well as international wire transfers into and out of the account;

Who is eligible to open an account at this US bank?

Previously there was a short list of countries. However, it has recently come to my notice that applicants from other countries and regions are now being refused.
