Opening a traditional bank account has become trickier, especially for offshore entities. Many banks require a physical visit, and they often reject offshore setups unless there’s a strong case. That said, fintech platforms and EMI services (electronic money institutions) are more flexible and often faster. It really depends on the jurisdiction of your company. Some countries offer local banks that cater to offshore companies, but due diligence is key. I found up-to-date info and user feedback about which banks still work well in the Offshore Company Formation forum. Helped me avoid wasting weeks on dead ends.
