Hello everyone,

I am a US citizen and won't have the ease of an EU citizen in getting a bank account. Any pitfalls, and any recommended banks?

Hey girlnothere,

I didn't have any problems opening a new account as an American expat. I forget if i already had my living permit, or if it was being processed.

Seems the most stable/popular banks here are Swedbank (www.swedbank.ee), SEB (www.seb.ee), Nordea (www.nordea.ee) and Danske (www.danskebank.ee)..

Hope this helps..

Hello. I am also an American living here and had no trouble opening an account. You shouldn't have a problem.
