However, customers often ignore the problem that it is better to open bank accounts on the onshore side. For example, it is better for overseas companies to open bank accounts on the local side, while it is very difficult for domestic companies to open bank accounts on the overseas side or not to open bank accounts directly. Because domestic companies are offshore companies without registered companies or offices in the local side, local banks will not open accounts for us at all. Unless we register a local company, likeSingaporeCompany, but Singapore companies also need new citizens to serve as shareholders of the board, and may also have a number of local business requirements, so a domestic company is basically unable to open a bank account outside the country.
