As a Ghanaian citizen, I would like to open a bank account in Australia, but I don’t intend to migrate there soon.

I would just love to bank with you people.

Is that possible?

Hi Ransford,

Unfortunately that is not possible – you need to be an Australian citizen with an Australian residential address to open an account with Heritage Bank.
