Since September 2016, the nine largest personal current account providers in the UK are legally required to offer basic bank accounts to customers who do not have a bank account or who are ineligible for a bank\u2019s standard current account, provided that the customer is legally resident in the EU.<\/p>

In the case of refugees the suggested non-standard documentation includes an Immigration Status Document with Residence Permit.<\/p>

To help refugees to prove their identity, when an individual is granted refugee status by the Home Office they are issued with a Biometric Residence Permit (BRP) as proof of the holder\u2019s right to stay, work or study in the UK.<\/p>
