Hey bunqers 🌈
As you know, bunq is a Dutch bank and therefore our original IBANs are Dutch. With the launch of Foreign IBANs, residents in Germany, France, and Spain can now enjoy a Foreign IBAN for a complete local experience. But don’t worry - you can still get a Dutch IBAN if you prefer!
What’s a Dutch IBAN?
bunq is a European bank based in the Netherlands meaning that your IBANs are located in the Netherlands. You can recognize this when you see the NL in your IBANs. 🇳🇱
Even if you’re not Dutch, your Dutch IBAN is accepted everywhere, by all authorities. Your IBAN is fully legal and usable in every country. If you experience any kind of discrimination regarding your Dutch IBAN make sure to report this case as explained here
How can I get a Dutch IBAN?
- Go to Home tab
- Tap on 🟣 + Add
- Click on 🟢 Add a Bank Account
