Information on how to set up a corporate bank account.
, a “request for opening a corporate account” form is needed. It is obtainable through any large Danish bank. The form is to be returned to the Danish bank with a reference/recommendation from your local bank in your home country.
The completed request must be accompanied by the following documents:
- Power of attorney, filled in and signed
- Copy of certificate of registration (name, registration number, and address)
- Copy of memorandum and articles of association
- Copy of minutes of company’s board meeting specifying the persons authorised to sign for the company
- Copies of valid passport(s) of the beneficial owner(s) and of the person(s) authorised to sign for the company and act on behalf of the company
- The company’s latest annual accounts and other general information on the company’s line of business
- An indication of the number and size of the expected transactions on the account
Often, your local bank, a notary public, a Danish representative of the Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs or an international branch of a Danish bank will be required to certify the enclosures.
When your bank certifies the enclosures, it must verify that the documents are authentic and the most recent. The verification from your bank should be signed in accordance with your bank’s list of authorised signatures.
