On this article, you’ll learn the exact steps and requirements you need to know if you want to open a savings account in BDO.
It contains all the information you need to know so you can save time and effort when you’re opening your BDO account.
The steps and requirements below were based on our own experience when we open our own BDO savings account. Alright, here are the things you need to know.
In every street and of course every SM malls, you can easily find BDO ATM machines. If you’re planning to open a savings account in BDO, an ATM or probably a passbook account, we’re sharing the simple steps for you.
BDO savings account requirements
- 2 valid IDs and photocopy of them
- Billing statements (to verify your billing address)
- 2 copies of a 1×1 photo
*New requirement:
- TIN number (in earlier part of 2016, almost all establishments doing financial transactions ask to require TIN numbers from their clients/customers)
*Billing statements don’t need to be in your name, as long as it is the same address with the address that you’re going to use
Step-by-step guide to opening savings account in BDO
1. Go to the nearest BDO branch in your area. SM malls have BDO bank branches inside so you may want to take advantage of its convenience. And because it is convenient, sometimes it is full-packed and overcrowded.
Probably the best way is to go the nearest BDO branch in your area.
*BDO banks in SM open from 9AM up to 7PM and most of them are open on Saturdays.
2. Advise the officer in charge that you want to open a savings account. Fill out the application form. Make sure you double check all the information before you submit. You will also provide three (3) identical signature specimens.
3. Provide the initial deposit requirement.
Php2,000 – for BDO ATM savings account
Php5,000 – for BDO Passbook savings account
4. Wait at least a day or 2 to have your account activated. You may claim you ATM or Passbook kit after 5-7 banking days. You may also ask the teller.
5. They may also ask you or you can ask them to enroll your account in their online and phone banking feature. It has many advantages and very convenient if activated online.
That’s it! You now have the information on how you can open your BDO savings account. Once you have it, you can enroll your account in BDO online banking.

Update:
BDO got a new policy to refer the applicant to the nearest branch in their area. Since we are just new in our place and our ID is in a different address, they require us to submit a barangay clearance in where we live and a copy of our bill before they can process our application for a new savings account in BDO.
So my tip when you want to open a savings account in BDO, go to the nearest area in your place where you got identification for a no-hassle application.

Hello Cherry! Yes That’s the initial deposit required when I wrote the article. I’m not sure if official receipt will do but it needs to have your current address. 🙂
Billy says
Hello you can use any billing statement as long as its the same with your current address. For deposits, it will not ask for your address just the acct number.
Sharmaine Bermudez Castro says
Hi, is it required that the billing statement should be recent?
mary says
I want to open an account to your company. But , I am working out of our country . What should I do? Can I do open account by online?

Hi Zeny not sure about the process for corporate or businesses. This article is for personal savings account. You might need to visit the nearest branch for inquiry. There are other requirements and separate process for sure. Thank you!
Billy says
As far as I know, it will not be close but if you’re below maintaining balance there will be a deduction every month as long as there is fund in your account. Your account will be close if there’s no funds on it.
Julius Ladiao says
Hello I just wanted to ask if what are the requirements for opening an account for American nationality? Thanks

Chris says
I just opened a peso savings passbook account. I had to provide my ARC card, passport, copy of my Business Articles of Organization and State Certificate (because I am self employed),Proof of current address (cable bill, lease), and the 10K PHP minimum deposit.

Billy says
Thanks Chris! This will help other foreigner readers. Godbless!
Juan Paolo says
Good day, I would just like to ask if you have a list of ID’s that are acceptable in opening an account.
Billy says
Don’t have it Juan. But the commons are the ID issued by government like sss id, passport, driver license will surely do.
bevs says
How about tin ID?
Billy says
I’m not sure about TIN ID ‘coz on some experience it is not considered as valid ID of some banks. I only used my TIN ID as a supporting ID. 🙂
james says
they say 100 pesos only..without initial deposit..
james says
some say..100 pesos only and without initial deposit..is that true?
Billy says
Not sure James but what you see here is what we’ve experienced personally. Thankyou!
Nayr Ocampo says
the p100 initial deposit or to open an account is for those who has remittances.
Just like opening an account with requirements you will just add the proof of remittance you have – old receipt / recent will do.
Thanks
Billy says
Thanks Nayr for the info! God bless! 🙂
Aikee says
It’s the Kabayan savings account. 100 pesos only and minimum initial deposit of 50 pesos.

Aikee says
Hello. Nag open po ako Kabayan Account. Nag initial dposit po ako ng 500. Pwede ko po kaya ma withdraw yun? And if ever pwede, ok lang kaya kahit pasabook gamit? Wala pa po kasi yung atm card ko. Thank you!

ginky villante says
hello! i just want to know what requirements i need for opening passbook for remittance or it called kabayan savings account. thank you. i hope i’ll got the answer from you all guys.
Billy says
Not sure about the kabayan account. Have you check with the nearest BDO branch in your area? I’ll try to check on this one and will get back to you. Thank you!
Raymond says
Is there any possibilty on re-opening/ activating your account once it was deactivated? Or would it be the same as opening a new account which would require a 2,000 deposit?
Billy says
I suggest opening a new one. 🙂
Eugene says
I want to open a savings account but i don’t have a proof of billing address because we’ve just move to new rented place and our office just move (UPRC 315 Bldg.). Can I use our office as my billing address?
Hanielyn Napay says
Can I get my brother a paper to open a savings account? He is busy thats why I will be the one to get and bring it to him to fill up and sign the papers. I will just bring the requirements for him in the bank. Is it ok if he did not go personally to the bank?
Bern says
Ask lang if there’s no valid id.but have police clearance and barangay clearance di pa rin pwede magbukas ng bank account?
Billy says
I’m not sure b’coz when we get there, they require us to present a valid ID. 🙂
XYRA says
if i used 1 valid i.d (tin#.id).is that required to open account?
XYRA says
can i open account if i present 1 valid i.d only?
Billy says
Nope.
rjames says
Hi, Sir.
Ask ko lang po if pwede ba gamitin yung hometown address ko (i.e., Bicol) to open an account?…I’m currently working here in Laguna.
Billy says
You can use that to verify your permanent address. To open an account, you need to have an ID with your current address too as well as a proof of billing. 🙂
janessa says
hello po, ask ko lang po kc po gusto ko po mag open ng savings account sa BDO pero isa lang po valid ID ko..postal id lang po miron ako anu po bang pweding pang alternate?
bhemarch says
Hi there! Just want to know, can i open a bdo savings account though i was blacklisted because of my cancelled and unpaid credtcard debt in other bank?
Billy says
Sorry to hear but I think you can’t. 🙁 Once your information was pulled up from their system, they’ll see all those records. You can try to open on other banks or settle your responsibility with BDO first. Thank you!
bhemarch says
I was turned down by bpi…woulf bdo do the same?
allen says
sa experience ko 2 valid IDs lang kinuha sakin (hindi na ako hiningan ng billing statements), at regarding sa 1×1 photo hindi na need kasi dun ka na mismo pipicture-ran direct sa computer nila. I hope it helps. 🙂

Akl says
Can i open a savings accpunt online? Or can my relative open one for me? I’m working overseas.

muhammad fadhli says

Ennazus says
As for my experience. I just open my bdo atm account on November 2015. They ask for 2 valid id and what i gave them is sss and philhealth id even though phil health id dont have address on it they accept it. For the picture no need to bring they will take your picture at their computer. And they dont ask for my billing address as well. They will also interview you why do you need to open an account and other stuffs. I also put our landline number there and they call at our house to confirm the information that they got from me on the interview.
Hope it helps.
Billy says
Thanks for sharing Ennazus. This will help other readers. God bless!
John says
If I’m going to open a savings account with both ATM and passbook, does it mean I have to provide P12,000.00 initial deposit? Does it have any other fees or charges like charges for the ATM card itself? Please advise. Thank you very much.
Billy says
Nope. You just need to deposit the initial deposit for passbook and they have the option to provide ATM for that account. Thanks!
Cey says
Hi, great article, just a quick question. What if I want my BDO debit card to also have Mastercard privileges? Are there other requirements/fees for that? Thanks.

malou says
i inquire at bpi visayas ave planning to open a savings acct initial deposit of course is 10k but they turn me down just because my company id isnt digitized/ i have proof of billing picture/philhealth id/nbi/baranagy id/voters id and company id/ thats all i have i dont have free time to get other id as of this moment and im very dissapointed teller cant even provide good customer services..
anyway i tried to a diff bank and they’ve accepted my id as to them even if it isn’t digitized it still an id. and i have supporting id’s and i can always pass another government id some other time..
no offense to bpi in general im sorry about this but this is ho i feel…
i guess tellers need a refresher about how simple advise or help can make a diff but thanks to that teller as because of her i have another reason to earn more…
Billy says
Sad to hear about this Malou. Sometimes branches have different policies that’s why I always advice to check with the nearest branch. Hope they have a 1 general policy for all to avoid confusion like this. Thank you.

Hey Billy,
Mga Feb 2016 nagtry akong mag open ng bank account sa BDO Blumentritt. Dahil umuupa ako humiram ako ng electric bill sa landlord ko, kaso hindi nila tinanggap.
Dapat daw meron kang landline at dahil wala akong landline pati ang landlord ko. Dapat daw kahit ang malapit na kapitbahay namin may landline.. weird. So sa metrobank ako nagbukas.
Gelyn says

hello po …ano po mga requirements for applying saving accounts ATM sa BDO po for students po?
Rachel Saberdo says
Hi po! Pwede ba na gawin ATM savings ang Passbook savings. Just to lower the Monthly Maintaining balance?
Roger Esquivias says
What about an association or group wanting to have a savings account sa BDO?
1. What are the requirements?
2. What is the minimum balance, or opening balance?
3. What if there is no governing body. The group is autonomous, or acting alone at the moment, puede ba the group giving SPA to a particular member to open and handle the account, and this way, be similar to an individual account, although the account name is of the group’s name.
4. How long will the processing take.
Thank you so much.
Roger Esquivias (an account holder at BDO, SM East Ortigas)
