At Fio banka we will open a current account for you quickly and without any fees. Don't want to visit a branch?
4 steps to a current account without fees:
- Visit any of our branches.

- Deposit funds to the account at least up to the minimum balance.
What documents will you need?
a) Physical person (resident, non-entrepreneur):
- EU citizen - valid identification card or passport.
- Others - valid passport (in some cases 2 forms of identification are needed).
Note: an account can also be opened for minors but must opened by their legal guardian until such minor reaches 18 years of age on the basis of a form of identification of any minor children (a parent's identification card for example) or the birth certificate of the minor.
b) Physical person - entrepreneur:
Form of identification + trade license or an excerpt from the Trade License Register (original or certified copy).
c) Legal entity:
- Registered in the Business Register of the Slovak Republic - it is not necessary to submit an extract from the register, it is enough to indicate the ID number
- From other registers - extract from the register not older than 6 months (original or certified copy in documentary form, or extract electronically signed by the public authority in ASICE format)
d) Civic associations, non-profits:
- Excerpt from the appropriate register proving the existence of the entity not older than 6 months or an original or certified copy of its articles with a stamp from the Ministry of the Interior (remains at the branch along with documentation).
- Minutes from the meeting at which the statutory body or functionary or functionaries of the association permitted to act on behalf of the association were elected must be provided. The minutes must contain a marked section with the discussions, the election of the specific body and functionary elected to the body of the association and the scope of their permission to act on behalf of the association (these people must be identified individually in the minutes, e.g. first and last name, birth number or date of birth and the address of permanent residence).
- When the contractual documentation is signed, persons permitted to act on behalf of a joint-stock company must be present at the branch (based on its articles).
