US Incorporation · US Bank Account
A US bank account,
opened from India.
A non-resident founder can open a US business bank account from India without flying out — using non-resident-friendly platforms like Mercury, Brex, or Wise — provided you have a US entity, an EIN, and a clean document pack. We match you to the right option, prepare the application, and get payments live. The bank makes the final approval decision; we maximize the odds.
A US bank account is what turns your US company from a filing into a working business. We pick the platform most likely to approve you, package your EIN and formation documents correctly, and get Stripe and cards running once you're live.
- No US travel
- Applied for remotely
- EIN + entity docs
- Packaged correctly
- Payments ready
- Stripe & cards set up
Why banking trips founders up
The account everyone needs and few can open.
- No presence
Most US banks expect a local address and an SSN.
Traditional branches usually want you to show up in person with US ID — a wall for a founder applying from India.
- Right platform
Mercury, Brex, Wise, or a traditional bank?
Non-resident-friendly options each have their own eligibility rules, and the right one depends on your entity, your founders, and how you'll move money.
- Documentation
One missing document and the application stalls.
These applications hinge on a clean pack — EIN letter, formation documents, ownership, and IDs presented exactly how the platform expects.
- Rejections
Rejected with no clear reason?
Non-resident applications get declined for fixable reasons — wrong entity details, incomplete ownership, a business the platform won't serve. Knowing why saves weeks.
A US bank account is the step most non-resident founders get stuck on. Traditional banks expect a local presence, the non-resident-friendly platforms each have their own rules, and a single missing document or wrong detail can stall or sink the application.
