Really? Quite interesting, never heard about a Serbian bank onboarding non-residents remotely. But today, many things are possible. It can be helpful for someone.
I know that you are not a Serbian bank, you are incorporated in Dominican Republic, IIRC.OK; but what do you mean by this? Your original formulation
sounded to me like you were able to help with opening a bank account in Serbia with some local bank (it is the original question of the thread starter) – unusual but possible, in theory.
See, guys. I have absolutely nothing against you; but I do not want to read these unclear answers to (hopefully) a very clear question.
Dear @Forester,See, guys. I have absolutely nothing against you; but I do not want to read these unclear answers to (hopefully) a very clear question.
So please either explain, what you do not understand with the question “what services you offer with respect to Serbia”; or answer in some reasonable way.
To be honest, your answers look like answers of some scammer – and I do not think you are scammers, as of now
OK. So, as I understand, nothing special relevant to Serbia, just you are able to serve Serbian subject. This was not the issue discussed here; but you are a bank from non-AEOI/CRS country, this is relevant for the discussion. So all fine.Yes, it is.
No, it is not. EDIT: Yes, it is. It is incorporated in Dominica (Commonwealth of), not in Dominican republic, as it can appear from here Serbia will report to crs ? What bank to choose from serbia?. Sorry.
May I bother you, @leeman , again with the question above? Could you please share here what you exactly asked Zen support and how exactly they replied? Sorry for being inquisitive but the answer would help many people.
So I asked at zen email if they report crs informations and this is the response I get :
Yes, it is.
No, it is not.

Thank you very much. Really appreciated.
Probably just an attempt at advertising in this thread - their post does not seem related to the topic.
I think you may have confused 2 countries here.
Apparently yes. I will get back to it with them later (now I am in the time stress as travelling.)
Well, I have not confused the countries. I am aware about the distinction. (Your explanation is useful anyway, many people confuse this.)I think you may have confused 2 countries here.
The Kingdom Bank is incorporated in Dominica (fully the Commonwealth of Dominica), not in the Dominican Republic. Both countries commonly accept foreigners for banking, but Dominica licenses solely offshore banks (not generic ones) for this purpose.
Dominica is a CRS/AEoI member, so by inference, this bank should be reporting customers. The Dominican Republic has not signed onto CRS/AEoI.
The Kingdom Bank also have other offshore banks in Dominica, UK and EU EMI, and some other institutions. I presume that their SEPA/SWIFT details are provided by the EMIs in the group or via a bank that is in a relationship with the EMIs (I do not find it likely that an EU bank would be in a relationship with a Dominican offshore bank to issue accounts for them). I have not yet been willing to pay the 2K EUR opening + 250 EUR monthly fees to get a SEPA IBAN or the X thousand + 750 EUR monthly for the SEPA/SWIFT multi-currency IBAN. It seems that they target a higher-risk demographic than I fall under

Not professional, really.No way, unfortunately. See above.
What is the problem @Forester !?!
