Opening account in EU while residing in UAE

Well they never asked me for any utility bills. I just walked in and did it. So maybe it depends on the staff.
yes !

I have applied for Golden Visa in UAE- can i also open in these banks - I am a non eu citizen
Its confirmed for BT you can 100%, Raif ask more thing,
you can do it yourself for free, and you can pay a lady who will make for you, you can pay only after the account is opening

Which branch did you visit?
I was in Bucarest and Buzau, both are ok, but Bucarest and more "pro", Personally I prefer to open in commercial center like baneasa mall...

MKB usually just asked for passport and an address. No utility bills.

The address can be of a friend or relative.

Probably won't sent there anything or maybe some promotions etc.
little precision, they don't ask for Romania utility bill, you can give France or an other
 
Just to confirm, some banks in Romania still accept non EU utility bills (without certified translation) as proof of address and can open account for EU passport holders?
What about MKB Bank now? New brand no longer accepts EU citizens but EU non residents? (It ceased to exist on 30 April 2023, when Takarékbank was merged into MKB, and the merged entity will operate under the name MBH Bank Nyrt.)
