Hi guys,

I would like to open a bank account with NAB(same branch as GoMarkets).
Can it be done for a foreigner and if yes, what is the minimum deposit required?

Appreciate anyone in the know can help to answer my question.

You need to be an Australian resident to open an account with the NAB.

The products and services described in this site are available only to Australian residents and in relation to property in Australia. Applications from people other than Australian residents will not be accepted.

They do have options for people migrating to Australia or international students, but I don't think you would be able to make use of these either.

CBA is accepting foreigners as long as they have the right documentation provided and you are physically at the branch to open an account. So if CBA is doing deals with foreigner I really could not imagine that one of the other remaining parrot called NAB is not interested in opening an account. After all you give them money so they can lend your deposited money ten fold out to the Australian folks attached with an ultra high interest.

Cheers

As far as I know you can open 2 accounts with GoM. One for trading and one for moving money in and out of your trading account. Don’t make any decision ‘til GoM replys to your post.

Peter-FX,

Thanks for your suggestion but that is not my plan because if both accounts are with GoM and 'if' they go bust our money in #2 account will also go down.

The reason I want to open a bank account at the same branch with GoM is to park the money there to fund the trading account when the need arises and to transfer fund into it from the trading account.

If this option is not available, then I have to find other alternatives.

Yeah, you got a point there and NAB should follow suit.

No bank in this world will open a bank account in your name over the net.
You need to ring NAB and ask them if they would accept you to open a account in physical presence. That simple, the online thingy is only working once you are a customer of a bank.

There is one other option; that is to open a PayPal account under the same name as your GoM account. You are able to transfer money within the hour and sometimes minutes, as long as GoM is open. So you would need to be aware of the different opening hours between Malaysia and Australia.

I agree that I need to be physically present for the opening of the account if NAB allows me .

Paypal is only good for funding the trading account but not for transferring fund from trading account back to paypal. Correct me if I'm wrong.

My understanding is:
1. You tell PayPal to transfer money from them to GoM, and they do that, within seconds.
2. At Pay Pal under “Request Money” you can send an email to GoM and request them to pay the amount you want. And GoM say that as long as the account name is the same they will pay the amount.

Can GoM confirm #2 ? That will be superb.

For what it's worth, I (Being an NZer), opened accounts in Australia with CBA and ANZ without being in Oz. I just faxed the Documents over and it was ok. This was about 4 or 5 years ago mind, so the regs might have changed.

GoM has partly answered this before see below.
They must be on holiday today, hence no answers.
