FAQ

Can non-residents open a bank account in Poland?

1 of the 3 accounts on this page explicitly accept non-residents (Revolut Poland). "Accepts applications" does not mean guaranteed approval — banks still assess your ID, proof of address and source of funds. Without local residence or a tax number, prefer accounts marked as remotely openable.

Do I have to visit Poland in person to open an account?

Not necessarily. 1 of the 3 accounts can be opened fully online (Revolut Poland), with no branch visit; the remaining 2 still require a branch visit or an appointment. Online opening depends on whether your documents pass automated checks.

How much money do I need to open an account in Poland?

Minimums vary widely — see the "Minimum deposit" column. 3 account(s) have no minimum deposit, so you need not fund on day one. Also watch the minimum balance and monthly fee; dormant accounts can incur charges.

How long does it take to open an account in Poland?

It depends on the account: online accounts are usually approved within minutes to a few working days, while branch or manually reviewed accounts typically take 1 to 3 weeks. The "How to apply" column shows the channel for each account, and timings are on the individual pages.
