Alexander Kleschev, a Partner in the ALRUD Corporate practice, recently shared his insights on how to open a bank account in the UAE in an article on Pravo.ru. According to Kleschev, UAE residents have an easier time opening a bank account compared to non-residents. He notes that residents simply need to demonstrate that they live and work in the Emirates, which can sometimes even grant them access to international bank subsidiaries.
For non-residents, Kleschev highlights that the main challenge lies in the type of passport they plan to use for opening a bank account, rather than their residency status. Non-residents may face more hurdles in the process compared to residents.
