U.K. BANK ACCOUNT OPENING SERVICE. AVAILABLE TO ALL U.K. AND NON-U.K. CITIZENS

The process of obtaining a U.K. bank account usually takes about two to three weeks, from the date Coddan receives your completed U.K. Bank Account Opening Service order form, and the bank's required documents.

To open a bank account you will need to produce 'proof of identity'. The most commonly accepted forms are Passports, Driving Licences and Utility bills which include your name and address. Banks usually ask for a number of these items and may also require a letter from an employer.

Banks have a strict vetting procedure and will ask a multitude of questions to find out your current credit situation. Questions include family details, current and previous addresses, outstanding loans, and credit card balances. The bank may also approach other companies to check your credit history. If the bank is satisfied that you do not appear to be a credit risk they will probably allow you to open an account.

In order for us to open a bank account for the company or LLP we will need the following items:

Copy of Drivers License. National Insurance Number of all signers (UK Citizens). Copy of Passport, with photo also please list address of record (Foreign Account). Email address, website address, business phone number, contact name and a Tax ID Number must be supplied before account can be opened. Signed local bank reference letter from Officer of your current bank - translated in English. Companies and Limited Liability Partnerships (LLP) require Certified Copy of Certificate of Incorporation, please include a copy of the Memorandum and Articles of Association or LLP Agreement. Copy of company business card with name and title of principal signer. Detailed description of business type - nature of business. Please explain, in detail the need for a U.K. based bank account. List location of primary trading area. List anticipated volume, cash and otherwise. Please provide a "Certificate of Good Standing".

We require that you deposit a minimum of £1,000.00 in the account as your initial deposit to cover monthly service charges and cash withdrawal.

Our contacts are at senior management level with most major high street, private and investment banks. Our service includes initial consultation prior to final bank choice including the preparation of documents and the processing of your application including submission to the bank and ongoing consultation with the bank during the account opening procedure.
