Can a US citizen open a BBVA account in Mexico?
Yes, you can open a bank account in China as a US citizen, though the process is more complex than in the US and usually requires an in-person visit to a local branch [1.5.1]. There are no specific laws prohibiting foreigners from opening accounts, but each bank sets its own internal eligibility criteria, meaning some may be more welcoming to expats than others [1.5.1]. You will generally need to provide your valid passport, a completed application form, and proof of your legal status, such as a work visa or student ID [1.5.1]. Some banks may also request a Chinese phone number or proof of address [1.5.1]. Because online applications are rarely available for non-residents, plan to visit a branch with a small initial cash deposit (often 10-20 CNY) to open your account [1.5.1].
