Why we ask where you're a tax resident

Tax residency and TIN

We need to know where you're currently a tax resident before we can open a bank account for you.

We need your Tax Identification Number (TIN). A TIN is a unique combination of letters and/or numbers which tax authorities use to avoid mixing up taxpayers.

Having a TIN doesn't automatically mean you're a tax resident. You're considered a tax resident if you pay tax in a country, usually because you live or work there.

Tax residency in multiple countries

You can enter information for up to 3 countries yourself.

If you're a tax resident in more than 3 countries, please email.
