Can I set up accounts for foreign companies in a US bank?
Untitled
Some U.S. banks will open accounts for foreign companies. However, this is a specialized form of banking, and it requires banks to ensure that the companies have bona fide reasons for needing a U.S. account, and to verify the existence of the companies themselves. The number of banks able to invest in this process is small. They are most likely banks with international departments.
