Opening a UAE corporate bank account requires more than having a trade licence. Banks assess the company's activity, ownership, business model, expected transactions, source of funds and supporting documentation during their compliance and KYC checks. Horus Zone helps businesses prepare and coordinate the application process.
Requirements vary by bank and company structure, but businesses should be prepared to provide corporate, ownership, identification and supporting business documentation during the application process.
Horus Zone helps businesses prepare and coordinate their corporate bank account application by reviewing the company's banking profile, identifying suitable banking options, preparing application documentation, coordinating submission and supporting follow-up during the application process.
Review the company's business activity, ownership structure, business model, expected transactions, source of funds and supporting information before submitting the application.
