Business Bank Account Creation – CoFilings®
🏦   US & UK · Residents & Non-Residents

Open a Business Bank Account the Easy Way

We guide and assist you in opening a business bank account for your newly formed or existing company. From preparing the right documents to matching you with the best banking options — including remote setup for non-residents — we make getting your business banking sorted simple and stress-free.

Get Your Business Banking Set Up Right

A dedicated business bank account is essential for running your company professionally. It keeps your business and personal finances separate, makes accounting and taxes far easier, and lets you accept payments, pay suppliers, and build a financial track record under your company's name.

The challenge is that opening one — especially as a non-resident or foreign-owned company — can be slow and confusing, with strict documentation requirements and frequent rejections for the smallest mistakes.

CoFilings® takes the guesswork out of it. We help you prepare the documents banks actually want, point you toward suitable banking and fintech options, and guide you through the application so your account gets approved without the back-and-forth.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can a non-resident open a US or UK business bank account?
Yes. Non-residents can open business accounts, though banks have stricter requirements and many fintech providers now offer remote-friendly options. We help match you with suitable providers and prepare the documentation they expect.
What documents do I need?
Typically your company formation documents, EIN or company number, proof of identity and address, and details about your business activity. Exact requirements vary by bank — we tell you precisely what yours needs and help you prepare it.
Do I need an EIN to open a US account?
In most cases, yes — US banks generally require an EIN for a business account. If you don't have one yet, we can help you obtain it as part of getting you set up.
Do you open the account for me?
Banks require the account holder to apply and pass their own verification, so we can't open it on your behalf. What we do is guide you end-to-end — recommending options, preparing documents, and helping you avoid the mistakes that cause rejections.
Can I use a fintech instead of a traditional bank?
Often, yes. Modern fintech and digital banking providers can be faster and more accessible, especially for non-residents and online businesses. We'll help you weigh traditional banks against fintech options based on your needs.
Can you help with an existing company, not just a new one?
Absolutely. Whether your company was just formed or has been operating for years, we can help you open a new business account or add banking for a new market.
