Hi, for those who apply etrade brokerage account, how long do u wait to receive the welcoming package? I'm from Malaysia.

Thanks.

the best way to go is open an account at
either
http://tdameritrade.com
or http://interactivebrokers.com

IB not only allows you to trade US stocks but shares in many countries. They will be best if you intend to trade 1000 shares or less per trade. If you plan to trade larger blocks of shares i would go with TD Ameritrade.

Both of these brokers welcome international customers and you can open an account online and wire funds from your bank and start trading the next day after you wire.

It's all very simple and these are large trusted firms.

whats the best way to fund a us checking account ?

Etrade offers checking and debit cards, and you can wire or mail money order or certified check to open account.

Good luck to all, Mike

Anyone who has tried such a bank account in the last few months?

btw that is a brokerage account right? is can use like saving account to and transfer to another usa bank account??

is there any US account that doesn't require a minimum deposit to open?

If you're in the USA, then I'm sure a minimum would be $50 but since you're a foreigner, your minimum would be a lot lot higher as compared to a local.

Why? Simple, because they don't want just about any Tom, Dick or Harry to just open an account with them without a reason and thus make them prone to Money Laundering and that is one of the things that banks fear the most. Money Laundering could cause them to not only lose their license as a bank but also to get them in jail because of it.

So a bigger deposit would be needed to ensure that you're a genuine person wanting an account with them.

i hear for opening us bank account after WTC tragedy. USA tighter foreign people to make bank acc in usa. or if want to make bank acc in usa, foregin people have limit in saving amount. to avoid terrorist in usa got fund from usa bank.

You can get a real US bank account if you have a US registered company.

Im not staying in US...but i've got INTERACTIVEBROKERS brokerage account...so is it possible that i open a BANK ACCOUNT in US???

Thanks for helping.....

I am from Singapore and also looking for
ways to open a US bank account since
I buy shares of corporate American company.
Thanks for recommending etrade.

Can a person just visiting another country open a bank account there?
I am sure a foreign person that is working in the USA can open an account.

I just saw something on the news about some bank giving accounts to illegal aliens. Did not hear it all. I do not know what tax ID they would use to open the account.

There are on-line banks based in the USA. Do they allow foreign accounts? Maybe.
Might be worth a google.
