Could you provide more details on what was involved? Was your local bank a branch of a UK bank? Are you located within the EU? What legal documents did you need stamped? Who were they stamped by and how much did it cost?

I opened an account with www.lhv.ee - a bank in Estonia (EU), which is my home country.

We started a company, then ordered the incorporation documents, and then had them sent back to be apostilled. Then we forwarded them to the bank. I had also been in the bank office before to sign some paperwork and see what was possible.

Starting a company was 200£. Apostilling the document was 30£. The cost of opening the bank account was 500€. Add some postage fees.

Thanks for all this. I suspect it is impossible to do outside of the eu.
