Bank account assistance in Romania

A company bank account is usually opened after the company is registered, and the bank will ask who owns and controls it. Companies file a declaration of the beneficial owner when they register, so expect the bank to ask for the same information, plus identity documents and a description of the business. Foreign owners should expect extra questions, and the timing is set by the bank, not by an adviser.

Assistance can mean preparing the file, translating documents, introducing you to a bank or attending a meeting for you. Ask the firm what exactly it does, whether it charges for an account that is refused, and whether you must visit in person. Be wary of any promise of a fixed outcome: a firm can prepare you well, but the bank decides.

Frequently asked questions

Can I open a Romanian company account from abroad?

Banks set their own rules, and some require a visit by a director or an authorised representative. Ask the firm which banks it works with and what each one needs from a non-resident owner.

Which documents does a bank usually ask for?

Typically the registration documents, identity papers for owners and directors, proof of the registered office and a description of activity. A firm can prepare the set and translate what is needed.

Will the firm guarantee that the account opens?

No firm can, because the bank takes the decision. Look for a clear description of the preparation work and what is charged if the bank declines.
