What documents do I need to open a bank account?

The documents required for opening a corporate bank account are usually as follows: approved certificate of formation of your business, Employer Identification Number, and one of the company owners to be present during the process. Banks are regulated by both the federal government and the state.

Please note that each bank may require different documents. Therefore, it’s always good to check the necessary documents before you go to the bank you want to work with. Some other materials that could be required by a bank:

  • Certificate of Authority: This document is also known as “Foreign Qualification.” It is called “foreign qualification” because a business is considered as a foreign entity in the states that are different than the one it was established. You can officially work in other states with this document. Most of the banks require this document for the companies doing business in other states. This document is important because a bank account is a place where all income is collected, and this is regarded as a business operation. You can contact us to get more information about “Foreign Qualification.”
  • Certificate of Good Standing: Also known as “Certificate of Existence,” this document is given to prove that your business fulfills all its tax responsibilities and pay its accounting fees properly. Most of the banks require this document when you apply for loans and open a corporate bank account. Additionally, companies may be asked to provide this document before making essential agreements.
