bunq - bank of The Free

Open an account in 5 minutes

Skip the branch visits and waiting times. Just download the bunq app and go through a 5 minute verification process. bunq will handle your application and have you banking in minutes!

No paperwork needed

bunq needs some basic info, a photo of your ID or passport and a brief verification video. A visa or residence permit is not required to set up your account. If you're from a non-EU country, a resident permit will suffice.

90 days for TIN

A Dutch bank is legally required to ask for your Tax Identification Number. Whereas most banks ask for this right away, bunq gives you 90 days to get set up.

Get a Local IBAN

You’ll automatically get a NL, DE, FR, ES or IE IBAN depending on where you live. Want to set up a local bank account for a work trip or leisure? Just create a new local bank account as soon as you land in a new country. Great for when you change countries regularly for work. 

Bank in 22 currencies

Moving further away? You can spend, save, pay and receive in a wide range of currencies directly in the bunq app, simply by opening a Local Currency account.
