Hi reddit,

I came to Taiwan in February and since then tried to open bank account, but nobody wants to open me it. I have gold card and registered address here, but employed in foreign country.

I tried different banks and branches, today I had appointment in Cathay for the second time, they ignored me and I waited there for 50 mins. They told me they do not want to open bank account for my country citizenship (eastern EU) . So now I kind of do not understand, what it the real practical way to open bank account for daily usage here. Is it real for foreigner ?
