Opening Bank Account without Residency
« on: March 18, 2022, 10:04:22 AM »
Coming out soon and need to open an account but don’t have RP.Iam aware that some banks/branches require this,some don’t.
Anyone have experience of opening an account recently with good English speaking staff where RP was not an issue ?
Needs to be in Fethiye,do internet banking for paying utilities and have ATMs with English option.
Thanks in anticipation

As far as I am aware Garanti bank don’t require residency friends of ours went into the one opposite the fethiye spor car park but they didn’t bother because it was going to take 2 visits over 2 days the paper work required from our friends was copies of utility bills over 3 months (uk was excepted) uk bank statement proving income, the process for joining has totally changed since we did it 2 years ago. We use an English speaking lady called Gulhan she sits upstairs if you want her WhatsApp number I can pm you

Hello On the bank account opening process you have to show a proof of address. Most of the Banks accepts the address on UK driving licence. Just get a tax number and go to Bank with UK drivers licence, in hapf an hour time all will be done
