i already registered the fast saver account, then transferred sgd1k over, but now they asking me for employment pass, which i do not have. what should i do now?

TDA - Best for US stock trade - zero commission charge, USD Cash in account earn interest, better option trade tools than IBKR.

Other the US stock, IBKR is more competitive. For those in SWX, LSE, HKSE, TSE, TSEJ, ASX, etc.

You didnt go your homework enough. Come I spoon-feed you
There's only one bank in sg which accept Malaysian without sg address or if you are not working/studying sg.

Cost to maintain account varies from SGD3000-SGD0.00

But you need to be physically there to open account. No online opening account.

That's bank is DBS. But you need to open their DBS Vickers account. After that see what account they opened for you.

If it's a DBS multiplier you need to maintain sgd3k for 6 months.
If it's a DBS My account it cost sgd0.00 to maintain account.

If you get a DBS multiplier account, you can switch to DBS My account after 6 months via online.

Hope that helps.

i could open an account with only using my passports

Hi Ramjade, may i know which DBS branch u went to apply for this ? Thank you so much
