We work with local Sierra Leonean commercial banks. An in-person visit is required. No fixed minimum deposit.
Sierra Leone is a rising financial centre in West Africa and does not participate in the automatic exchange of information (CRS). The country offers uncomplicated account opening with no local residency: a passport and proof of address suffice. The banks in Freetown are well regulated and offer multi-currency accounts in USD, GBP and the local currency. Sierra Leone is particularly attractive for entrepreneurs looking for a West African account without CRS reporting. We accompany you through the entire process.

Proof of address and phone number must come from the same country — and that must be a genuine residence, not a PO box address. Our Nomad Package sets up a recognised address in the Philippines, including all required documents. Fully remote, no travel required. Ready in 1–2 weeks.
