US citizens in the UK

Every UK bank and provider checked for US citizens

Start from the bank you already use. If you have an account with one of these, a second account there is usually the easier application, because the institution has already checked who you are. Each page gathers every account checked for a US person at that institution, whatever the type.

Brands are grouped the way a customer meets them: the HSBC page carries HSBC's mortgage, its share-dealing service and its offshore account as well as the current account. A brand with its own login, such as First Direct, has its own page even where one banking group owns both.

Common questions

Which UK banks accept US citizens?

It depends on the account, which is why each bank here has a page of its own. Take a current account. Of the 32 providers checked that offer a current account, 31 open one for a US citizen outright, 1 attaches conditions and none refuse. Stocks and shares ISAs, investment accounts and some pensions are the other end, where a large share of providers decline. Each bank's page lists every account it offers with the verdict for a US citizen, the source and the date it was checked.
