Many expats and investors at Majestic Empire Residences ask us the same question: “How do I open a bank account in the Philippines and how do I transfer money there?”
The good news: It's easier than many people think – and we'll help you every step of the way.
Opening an account in the Philippines
A particularly recommended bank is the Philippine National Bank (PNB) . It offers:
Online banking with a user-friendly interface
Bank cards for convenient payments and cash withdrawals
Possibility of opening an account also for tourists
We will personally assist you in opening your PNB account, provide the necessary documents, and help you activate online banking.
Money transfers to the Philippines
Once opened, it's easy to transfer money from your home country to your Philippine account. There are several reliable ways to do this:
1. International online services
Wise (formerly TransferWise): Fast, secure and affordable international money transfers
Revolut : Particularly interesting because it now partners with German e-banks. You can transfer money from your German bank account to your Revolut account and send it to your PNB account within minutes.
2. Classic bank transfers
Normal bank-to-bank transfers are also possible, but usually take longer and may incur higher fees.
