What does a representative office need to open an Uzbek bank account?

Question

Accepted Answer

More than a company does — including consular- or notary-certified founding documents. An application to open the account. A copy of the certificate that a taxpayer identification number was issued — unless legislation provides otherwise. A signature-specimen card, and the signatory’s identity document — original or the electronic form issued through the state services portal or «Ijtimoiy karta». Founding documents in certified copy — the founding agreement and charter and their amendments, certified by a consulate or a notary. This is the non-resident list, and it is the reason a representative office is a slower thing to bank than a company. It reaches diplomatic missions, international organisations and their branches, representative offices of other foreign organisations not carrying on commercial activity, permanent establishments, participants in open electronic commodity-exchange trading, foreign investors buying or selling shares and corporate bonds in organised trading, and non-resident participants in crypto-asset trading. The deadline is different too: fifteen days rather than the next working day. A company incorporated in Uzbekistan by foreign shareholders is not on this list — it is a resident legal entity and gives the three-document list instead.
