Right now, new USD account details are not available for businesses outside the US.
If you already have USD account details, they’ll work as normal.
The availability of USD account details depends on where you or your business is registered on your Wise account.
USD account details are used for receiving money from other people or businesses. If you’re looking to just hold or add your own money in USD, check if you can open a balance here.
Unavailable countries
If your registered address is in one of the countries where we don’t have balances, we won’t be able to provide you with USD account details for receiving money.

Business account restrictions
If your business’s trading address is in an unavailable country above or China or Nigeria, you won't be able to get account details — even if the business itself is registered in an available country. A trading address is the physical location where you usually work every day.
Canadian Driver's Licence
We aren't able to verify you with a Canadian driver's licence at this time. We'll need to verify you with a passport or national ID instead.
When can I get USD account details?
If you're using Wise Business, you can join our waitlist when trying to sign up for USD account details. If you do this, we'll let you know as soon as USD account details are available in your region.
If you have GBP account details on your Wise account you can still receive international Swift payments in USD. Learn more here.
Why is Wise making changes to its operations?
Our priority at Wise is to offer the best experience possible for our customers. We continually invest in our operations and network, and there are times we need to make changes to parts of our products to ensure reliability and enhance our services for our customers.
As part of this, it’s possible you’ll be hearing from us to ask for updated information or to verify details about yourself or your business. Please know this is important for both our operations and to keep our services running smoothly for you.
Why am I being asked to provide additional verification information?
We know that you provide information to us when you join Wise, but sometimes we need to request up-to-date info about your identity.
We may ask for this to comply with regulatory requirements. If you receive an email from us about this please follow the instructions and provide the necessary information and documents to continue using your Wise account.
Why can I no longer access USD account details?
From time to time, Wise or our providers may update the lists of countries which are supported. Unfortunately, this means we may no longer be able to support certain products or features in the region you or your business are located in. We’re always working on making all features of the Wise account available to more people and businesses.
