Normally, when mainlanders want to open a personal account in a Hong Kong bank, it is recommended to entrust an agency to assist in opening it. Because if an individual opens a bank account alone, usually Hong Kong bank managers will recommend financial products, and whether to purchase relevant financial products will largely affect whether a bank account can be successfully opened.

Agency generally has channels that include account opening, and can successfully open bank accounts without customers purchasing financial products.

Information required to apply for opening a Hong Kong bank account:

1. Personal identity document:

Provide original identity document/passport. Please note that the document must be within the validity period within the range.

2. Hong Kong and Macau Pass:

The Hong Kong and Macau Pass and the customs clearance certificate need to be kept well and provided when opening an account.

3. Account opening funds:

Each Hong Kong bank requires slightly different account opening funds, but bank cards or cash can be used.

Under normal circumstances, it is enough to provide relevant documents to open a personal account in a Hong Kong bank. However, in some special circumstances, banks will require customers to provide more supporting information to prove the applicant's qualifications.
