    Hi - My 15 year old daughter will be participating in a student exchange program this fall.  She is a US citizen and will be attending school in Ireland for the entire academic year (2014-2015).  To avoid exchange fees each time she withdraws from an ATM, I'd like to open a Bank Of Ireland account for her.  Is this something I can do for her BEFORE she arrives in Ireland? If so, what's the process?  (I've trolled through the site and can't find any guidance unique to my situation.)

    Help?!

    Thanks!!

    Hi jdeppen,

    Thanks for contacting us here on Boards.ie and for your interest in opening an account with us for your daughter. 

    To open an account for your daughter, you will need to contact a Bank of Ireland branch. This could be near where your daughter will be living or close to the school she will be attending. You can find our branch locations here

    Our colleagues in branch will be able to provide you with the forms necessary to open your daughter's account and also advise what documentation will be needed to open it.

    You can also find the features of our 2nd Level Student Accounts here  

    Please let us know if you need help with any other query. 

    Thanks,
    Sarah
