Title: yapikredi online banking
Post by: marshy on August 26, 2015, 20:53:35 PM

Hi All.
Went to yapikredi to sort out my online banking and apparently I need to get a kimlik number before they will do it. .???
Any advice. .I'm not a resident??

You sure they didn't ask for a Tax Number ?

If you're not a Resident you won't have a Kimlik Number.

Yeah, they have a Yabancı Kimlik Numarasi. 

You sure they wont accept a tax number (Vergi Numerasi) instead?

Yep. You can get it online using your RP.

Unless things have changed, you SHOULD only need your passport, & Turkish tax number, some banks will ask for proof of address, a utility bill etc to open an account. Then for internet banking you need to set it up in branch and register a mobile phone number, so they can send you the SMS text with an access code to long onto your account. Try another bank.

I think they will accept an English number. You DO need access to the phone your've registered with the bank everytime you log onto your account. They send a "one time use" PIN number for the final stage of the log on.
