Opening an account from Canada

[Raintedca (Teddy Ramaroson)]

I would like to ask if we can open an account from Canada?

[hanna (Hanna Linnasmäe)]

Hi Teddy!

What would you like to open an account for?

N26 bank account from Canada?

[edgarxiongglobal (Edgar Xiong)]

If I open a N26 account and deposit enough Euro in it, would officer in SF consulate consider it deposit in Portugal bank?

No, because N26 is not in Portugal and also not a Portuguese bank. You need a bank located in Portugal.

Which Portuguese bank will allow American to open a bank account remotely?

Check out these threads where people have already discussed this:

Portuguese banks that will work with US citizens?

Anyone happen to have a list of Portuguese banks that are willing to work with US citizens? I assume it is not an especially long list.

Getting A Bank Account In Portugal from United States without traveling to Portugal

I am guessing this question is asked all of the time. I did search and read the replies, but I did not find any clear specifics on the bank to use. We have acquired our NIFs… We are ready to pick a bank and open the account. Does anyone have specifics for a top bank or a local contact that would be able to provide detailed help? Thank you in advance!

We found a lawyer posted on the Portugal FB forum who is working with us and will open a bank account for us.
