To open a Stripe account in a country different from your primary business country, you need a legal entity, tax ID, physical location, phone number, government-issued ID, working website, and physical bank account in that country. Stripe must also support processing payments there. Exceptions include accounts opened in Canada with USD-denominated bank accounts, and accounts opened in Europe with EUR-denominated bank accounts.

To open a Stripe account in a country different from your primary business country, confirm that Stripe supports processing payments there. See which countries Stripe currently supports.

If supported, you'll will need the following in that country:

• For Stripe business accounts: A legal entity registered in the same country where you plan to open the account.
• A tax ID.
• A physical location in that country where you can receive mail, not a P.O. box.
• A phone number.
• A government-issued ID, such as a passport or driver’s license, from any country.
• A working website that shows what your business sells or what services you provide.
• A physical bank account in that country denominated in a supported transfer currency for that country. This can't be a virtual bank account.

Exceptions

• Accounts opened in Canada can use USD-denominated bank accounts.
• Accounts opened in most, but not all, European countries can use a EUR-denominated bank account regardless of the bank account country as long as the country is supported by Stripe. Confirm the supported payout currencies for a specific country with this drop down menu.
