Hi there
I am a Dane who is moving to Malta in a few weeks time.
I have a specific question about banking.
I understand that it is virtually impossible to open a bank account in Malta without a residency card, which will obviously take months to obtain due the whole eResidency mess.
My question is:
Once I have the residency card, will it automatically entitle me to get a Malta bank account, or might they still want referral letters etc. from my foreign bank?
I don't need the account right away and can easily wait it out until I get my residency card, if I can then easily get the account.
But if they still want referral letters etc once I have the residency card, then I might as well see if I can set something up beforehand through my current bank.
Any advice you can give on this will be greatly appreciated.
Cheers
Michael
