How to open Bank accounts for expats?
A newly arrived person on the territory of Poland does not have the legal rights as a qualified tax payer. For the foreigner who is regarded as a qualified tax payer and is permitted to reside in Poland is read as: The person who is on the territory of Poland is showing the sufficient interest of long term living in Poland, and that can be proved by a person whose living time on the territory of Poland is full of 183 days or more.
There are many barriers to open a Bank for the residents who are not qualified as taxpayers either through Online or in person applications. It will be especially difficult if the person’s income is coming from outside of Poland, and the Bank institutions in Poland do not want to add such cumbersome tasks because the taxation systems are different in different countries, therefore, the person who is not a Polish taxpayer is not going to be prioritized for Bank account registration.
A person who has the legal status of Residence Permit, which can be arranged and scheduled to obtain one in Poland, can also apply for a credit/debit card in Poland. The procedure of applying one is by submitting an employment declaration, which is usually filled and drafted on the papers by your employer who is obliged to pay tax for the workers.
It would be much better to do some research and consulting on the required documentation for opening a Bank account in order to avoid clumsy and nerve racking situations. It is simply by calling the Bank service or submitting your request Online for all the needed documents on a list, and it would be wise to take some time to get to know the offers and conditions for opening a Bank account.
