What's included
For founders in Luxembourg, the us business banking path covers:
- Compare business account providers that consider non-resident founders
- Prepare for payment-processor onboarding and document review
- Map available business debit and credit card options
- Multi-currency accounts and international transfers (incl. Wise Business)
- The exact documents banks ask for — EIN, formation docs, and passport
- Prioritize remote onboarding paths based on current provider rules
What to prepare from Luxembourg
Remote onboarding is a provider compliance review, not an automatic entitlement. A complete, internally consistent application usually moves more smoothly than documents assembled one request at a time.
- A US entity and EIN with a transparent ownership chain
- Formation documents, a current passport, and proof of the founder's Luxembourg address
- An explanation of any Luxembourg holding structure and the US entity's operating purpose
- Evidence of customers, contracts, or expected US dollar transactions when requested during review
Why founders in Luxembourg do this
Luxembourg founders and holding-company owners may need a US account for a US operating entity, US customers, or dollar-denominated payment flows.
How Rai Rai runs it
We own the path end to end — mapping the steps, handling the paperwork, coordinating the right partners, and staying on the parts that usually stall — so you get a working result, not a checklist.

Can I open a US business bank account from Luxembourg?
Remote onboarding may be available to a founder in Luxembourg with a qualifying US entity, EIN, ownership documents, passport, address evidence, and a supported business profile. Each provider sets its own country and activity rules, performs compliance review, and makes the final approval decision.
Can I do this from Luxembourg without traveling to the US?
Yes. Rai Rai focuses on the path that lets non-resident founders in Luxembourg complete us business banking remotely.
Can I get a US business bank account without an SSN?
Some providers consider non-resident founders using company documents and an EIN, but eligibility varies by country, ownership, business model, and provider policy. The bank or financial provider makes the final decision.
Which US banks work for non-residents?
Provider eligibility and onboarding rules change. We compare currently available options against your country, ownership, business activity, documents, and account needs; the provider performs its own compliance review and makes the final decision.
Can I open the account without visiting the US?
Remote onboarding may be available, depending on the provider and your profile. Timelines vary with identity checks, business reviews, document requests, and provider capacity.
Can I get a US business credit card as a non-resident?
We can map the steps toward debit or credit products that may fit your company. Availability, limits, guarantees, and approval remain subject to each issuer's underwriting and policies.
Will I be able to accept payments?
We can prepare the entity, banking, website, and documents commonly requested during payment-processor onboarding. Each processor independently determines availability and approval.
