Hi - any advice welcome. My wife and her brothers own a property in Cabo Roig and currently have a bank account in only one of their names. We've heard that to get a joint account, all three of them would have to be present at the bank to open it - is this true as it's a logistical nightmare for them? anyone have experience of opening joint accounts in Spain?

Many thanks

Me and hubby have got a joint account with sabadel and yes we both had to be present,it took about 30 mins (best to make an appointment) lots of forms to sign,but when it's done it's done. Good luck

Yes they all would have to be present to open up a bank account, perhaps it could be done via a Solicitor, and give them power of attorney to open the account on their  behalf.

My husband & I have a joint account with La Caixa bank at the top of the strip but you have all definitely got to be there to open it & take your passport.
