Open your account online before moving to Australia if you're in Canada, Egypt, Hong Kong SAR, India, Malaysia, Philippines, Qatar, Singapore, UAE, UK, or the USA (if you're an existing US HSBC Premier customer). Please note that following the sale of HSBC Bank Canada and its subsidiaries to Royal Bank of Canada, we will no longer be able to offer branch support for overseas account opening from Canada.
If you're applying from a different location, our International Banking Centre team can help find the best option for you.
