How can I open a digital UK business bank account?
- Choose a regulated digital bank partner: At Leadforce, we partner with fully FCA-regulated digital banking providers, so you can get a secure, compliant business account. Popular options include Starling Bank, Tide, and Revolut Business.
- Prepare essential documentation: You'll typically need proof of identity, proof of the business's UK registration, details of directors/people with significant control, and information about your business activity.
- Complete the online application: Fill in company and personal details via the bank's website or app, submit your documentation for verification, and undergo standard compliance checks.
- Approval & onboarding: Once approved, you'll receive account details and, if applicable, a business debit card. Access your dashboard or app to manage payments, invoices, and bookkeeping digitally.
- Maintain compliance continuously: Ongoing checks may be required. Use the 24/7 dashboard/app to monitor transactions, set alerts, and manage your account securely.
Can I open a UK digital business bank account if I am a non-resident or have foreign shareholders?
- Eligibility and verification: Many UK digital banks accommodate non-residents and companies with foreign shareholders. Banks perform identity verification for all directors, beneficial owners (typically over 10%), and persons of significant control.
- Required documentation: Additional proof may be needed, such as certified translations of overseas ID, proof of address (even abroad), possibly a UK business address, and checks for politically exposed persons or sanctions.
- Timeline considerations: Traditional banks can take 4 weeks to 3 months for non-resident applications. Digital banking providers are often faster due to streamlined onboarding, but rigorous due diligence is still required.
- How Leadforce helps you: Leadforce connects you with FCA-regulated digital banking partners, guides you through documentation and verification, and ensures compliance for non-residents and foreign shareholders. Open your UK digital business bank account efficiently and securely with expert support.
- Tip: Have scanned IDs for all relevant persons, proof of address (even international), articles of association, shareholder registers, and a brief business plan showing the need for a UK bank account.
