No, there's no restriction on U.S. citizens at banks in Singapore.
As I said, some employers will prefer POSB/DBS (Same bank, different name)Hatem wrote:Which bank would you recommend?
I am open to any, I just need something that I can open quickly, where I can get my salary accredited (8400-9500 depending on the month), that can send international payments and with a debit card and credit card associated to it.
That's it
They have. The U.S. and Singapore signed a FATCA intergovernmental agreement (IGA) rather early on, and that made some difference.PNGMK wrote:Then things have improved.
You can ask Citibank Singapore for a credit card, and they might provide one.Hatem wrote:What card can I ask for internet purchases?
I have a Citibank SG and POSB accounts as US citizen. My salary goes to my Citibank account and monthly I transfer set amount of POSB account for living expenses (rent, tax,etc).BBCWatcher wrote: Citibank Singapore also tends to be a bit more willing to issue credit cards to new foreign residents if you insist on getting a Singapore-issued credit card, and they have some competitive ones. (Good question: why?)
