As a long time resident of Morocco, I have always banked with Nat West Channel Islands for my sterling and dollar accounts. Nat West is now closing these accounts to residents of Morocco. Does anybody know UK / Channel Island banks which will open accounts for UK citizens resident in Morocco? I am having trouble finding one. THANKS.

Hi if your residing in Morocco you can open a convertible dh account and also currency accounts in Morocco. Any Moroccan bank will open this for residence and non-residence. It鈥檚 easy for british citizen
