FAQ

  • Can I use Finom before my company registration is complete?

    Yes. You can open a Finom account and begin using your Finom Visa debit card immediately. You will have a full 90 days to finalise your company registration and provide your Handelsregisternummer.
  • What documents do I need to onboard to Finom if I am applying during formation?

    Just your notarised founding documents. This could be your notarial incorporation deed, your Articles of Association, or a Musterprotokoll if you used the simplified template. As long as the document has been notarised, you are ready to move forward.
  • Do my documents need to be notarised?

    Yes. They must carry a valid notary stamp and signature in order to be accepted.
  • Can I open a business account without a Handelsregister number?

    Yes. You can open your Finom account and start using your Finom Visa debit card right away. You don't need a Handelsregister number to get started.
  • How much time do I have to finish registering?

    You have 90 days. Once you receive your Handelsregister number, simply share it with us and we will finalise your registration on file.
  • What if I do not get my Handelsregister number within 90 days?

    The registration process can sometimes take longer than expected. Just contact our customer support in the app as soon as you are aware of an issue, and we will find a way to proceed.
  • What legal structures are accepted before registration is complete?

    If you are forming a GmbH, UG, GmbH & Co. KG, or their non-profit equivalents (gGmbH/gUG), you can open your Finom account while your registration is still in progress.
  • What happens if my business purpose isn't clear in my documents?

    We may ask for an additional document or a short written confirmation outlining your registered business activity. This is a completely normal part of the review process and it will not delay your account opening.
