Do you live abroad?
From 2027, Sparbanken Tanum will charge an annual administration fee of SEK 1,500 for customers residing outside Sweden, meaning those with a foreign address and/or tax residence abroad.
The administration fee complies with Swedish and European legislation and covers the bank’s additional costs of maintaining adequate customer due diligence in accordance with applicable regulations, where links to official Swedish registers relating to residence, identity documents and tax information, among other things, are unavailable.
The fee is charged at the beginning of each calendar year.
Please note that many payments, including pensions, can be paid directly into a bank account abroad by providing the payer with the IBAN of your foreign bank account.

What happens next?
Once you have sent us the documents, we will read them and check that everything is correct. If there is any missing information in your application or if something needs to be completed, it is important that your contact and address details are included in the material you submit so that we can reach you. Once we have processed your documents, we will call you to arrange a meeting. It is important that you bring your original passport or national ID card to the meeting.
This is why we ask questions
According to the law (Act on measures against money laundering and terrorist financing), we as a bank may not open accounts or carry out banking transactions unless we know why the customer needs a bank account and how it will be used. It is therefore important that you can identify yourself with a valid foreign passport and answer why you need to open a bank account.
