WhatsApp quoteOpening a business account with RAKBANK is a realistic goal for a well-prepared company, and preparation is exactly what GoldenKey provides. RAKBANK is the National Bank of Ras Al Khaimah, known as the UAE's SME bank with a straightforward approach to small-business onboarding, and it is one of the banks GoldenKey regularly introduces new companies to. Just as important, slovak automotive and engineering suppliers serve the UAE through Dubai distributors, which gives Slovak entrepreneurs a ready market and supply chain the moment their RAKBANK licence is issued. To be clear, slovaks are a small community in automotive, IT and hospitality, so the RAKBANK authority, the banks and the immigration officers see Slovak applications every day and process them without hesitation.
Why RAKBANK
Importantly, if RAKBANK is not the right fit for your profile, we say so and introduce you to a bank that is, because a well-matched file is approved faster.

GoldenKey has prepared RAKBANK files for Slovak customers in automotive, IT services, hospitality and engineering, which means we know which Slovakia papers need attestation and which can be submitted as plain copies.

Frequently asked questions
How long does RAKBANK take to open a business account?
Timelines vary with the bank's workload and the complexity of your profile. Simple service companies with a resident signatory are generally faster; trading companies with many countries of operation take longer.
What if RAKBANK declines my application?
In our experience, we ask for the reason, address it if possible and apply to a better-matched bank. A decline at one bank does not affect your application elsewhere.
Is a minimum balance required at RAKBANK?
Most UAE banks apply a minimum average balance or a monthly fee below it. GoldenKey confirms the current RAKBANK terms for your package before you apply.
Can a Slovak citizen own 100% of a company in RAKBANK?
Yes. Slovaks can own the full share capital of a RAKBANK company with no local partner, exactly like any other nationality.
How long does the process take for Slovak applicants?
Processing for Slovaks follows the same timeline as other nationalities. Documents from Slovakia that need attestation are the main variable, and GoldenKey guides you through that step.
