qwertygeni: Use your Nigerian paypal account linked with your debit card ( ecobank mastercard preferably, rate is N362 / $1) to make the payment , just ask the seller to send you their paypal account address or they send you prepayment invoice to your PayPal account. First bank , GTbank accepts lower dollar amounts , the easiest way to open a dorm account with these bank is to have a current account with them by that 90% of the account opening process is done. 2 Likes |

Union bank is the. Best. You wil be given a travel card.. wen opening opening a dominicialryu acount[ which will cost you. 100 dollarquote author=qwertygeni post=69772729]Dear Nairalanders, please I would like to know the best bank to open a Domiciliary account with with respect to the ease of opening, charges likely to be incured ( bank commission, travelex and offshore) and minimum account balance. I intended to make a payment of less than $1,000 to a company in China thru transfer or western union. So I decided to use transfer using Dom account as I can't make subsequent transaction using Westernunion cos of quarterly restrictions. I have been to more than one branch of some banks like GTB, first bank and FCMB and I hear different things from different branches of same bank . My experience is that most of these guys at the FX table of these banks are either not sure of these information especially on charges or purposely not sincere. Dear all, I will be grateful for all info that could be of help in this regards. Thank you. [/quote] 2 Likes |

It's funny how people answer questions, we just throw in answers which do not address the concern of the Op. Clearly, we're mentioning our favourite banks. @op, opening a dorm account has pretty similar pre-conditions for many of our banks. - 2 referees with current account - opening balance of $100 (no matter the currency you're opening the account in) - dorm card for $10 - utility bills As per which bank is best, thats very subjective cos many of our banks are shitty. When I did my due diligence, many of my friends said they settled for diamond bank cos they offered a pound card (clearly many were interested in a pound dorm account). Last last I decided against opening the dorm and simply upgraded my regular account to enable me make forex transactions while also opening an account abroad with XYZ bank. Hope this helps 23 Likes 2 Shares |

For me Diamond bank is the best. I opened the account in a day since I have a running current account with them. Also, you can deposit any amount with no string attached. This is a customer friendly bank and I can assure you of an excellent experience banking with them 1 Like |

qwertygeni: All banks are d same... it depends on the volume of USD u wanna move out. Stanbic and fcmb and uba now allows u to move upto 50k cash deposit at once a week on getting an approval.. The rest is the normal 10k a week or some 10k daily.... The charges are d same for all bank. If u want to be moving small amount I will advise u use standard chartered or diamond bank... you can do it in your home and thier interface is user friendly... 7 Likes |

What the op is trying to get is the bank charges... In depositing and tranfering... For example GTB charges 10 USD for any thing below 100 USD when tranfering... And also there is a charges .0.5% when you want to with draw or even transfer. (I don't know if same applies for transferring to other international banks) On the dom usage flexibility like other bank.... Including Zenith they change policies anytime... But GT will always give you time to adjust. More also recieving money from bank outside is easy unlike some bank that will hold it first... Up to a week. With GTB no matter the volume 3days you will see your money. More also GTB to me and though Zenith with one or two other banks in Nigeria are the only bank that practice beyond retail banking. Many of the banks in Nigeria can't even interprets or work with payment instruments. 7 Likes 1 Share |

Any of the 25 big banks can give you the required services. Nigerian cards are now widely accepted all over the world. Irrespective of which bank you settle for, make sure its a Mastercard that you are given as it is better accepted in the Western hemisphere. 1 Like 1 Share |
