    As an Irish person living in the USA, can I remotely open a current or savings account?

    If not remotely, can I do it in person?

    Hi there,

    Thanks for getting in touch.

    To apply for a non-resident account with Bank of Ireland you would need to have a financial tie to Republic of Ireland, such as salary paid by Irish employer, pension payment from Irish Government or Irish pension provider, purchasing property. We have information here on how to apply for a non-resident account.

    Thanks

    Tara
