Hi, i guess someone has asked before about this, but i'm new and don't know how to search out such things here on this site, so pls forgive me for asking but, can i get advice on opening an account in the philippines? My fiancee and I wandered into a couple of banks and asked requirements for me to open, and it seems fairly tricky. I only really have a passport as picture id, and all id's over there seem to have a pic. I don't have a clue what alien certificate of registration is, or how to get one, i dont have any police clearance, or any other things that banks were asking for.
Basically i have a passport, drivers license with no pic and birth certificate with no pic. I can come up with a utility bill for my address in the UK if that helps too. Can people recommend a bank that has less demands for opening? Or just clarify exactly what i need to open an account there. Obviously lots of people have done it, so someone must be able to advise on this. thanks, look forward to handy replies as soon as possible.
