Hi all
I would like to get your advice for banks in Europe for UK Companies

UK Company is the easiest and cheapest to incorporate
however
if your are not resident of UK. it useless when it comes to banks

So, for me, and probably for others. what is the best banking solution (NOT EMI)
for UK Companies ?

Visit the banks in London and have a lawyer with you, so you can easely open an account for your UK company in the UK.

Euro Pacific and EMI's there are not many left any longer unless you are going through an introducer which also seems to have huge problems to place clients with offshore banks remote!

it is near to impossible even for EU citizens
you need at least have half a year visa with work permission in UK

also, it is unuseful to walk in there
you need to appoint meeting

UK Companies are OK if you have a UK resident Director appointed this makes banking arrangement in the UK easier, but still it is not guaranteed that you could get one. Without a UK resident involved in the company it is pretty much impossible to open a regular account.
