The world's local bank
You can open an HSBC account in almost every country that HSBC operates. As different countries have different regulations, our branch staff can provide you with the appropriate documentation for each HSBC Bank and try to ensure your foreign HSBC account is ready when you need it. Generally, it will take 2 to 4 working weeks to open an account in another HSBC group country after the correct forms and documentation have been couriered, so you’ll want to plan ahead.
We'll provide account opening forms for you to complete and then arrange for the accounts to be opened before you leave for your new country (subject to local terms and conditions).When you get to your new country, if you need any assistance, simply contact the local International Banking Centre. They understand the needs of customers from US or overseas and will provide help and guidance.
