I need a business bank account in Cyprus for my Offshore company (I will open shortly) and for my onshore company in Venezuela. Can you let me know what bank in Cyprus to go with? Also the requirement to open an account for my Venezuela company?


Do you think there is a other offshore bank account that is better than Cyprus please post.. all help is so much appreciated.

Where is your offshore company registered and what is the business activity? Most often no issue at all.

I have read the forum up and down and it seems the Cyprus banks can open bank accounts remote for almost any offshore and onshore company.

I'm going to send you my order to day for a Seychelles company. The bank account needs to be for this company!
