The Basic Payment Package consists of a bank account with 1 debit card and costs €3.25 per month.
What does the Basic Payment Package contain?The Basic Payment Package contains a current account, a debit card and access to online banking services. It is a flexible payment package, which means you choose what you want in addition to your basic package. For example, you may want to have a credit card or an extra debit card. You only pay for what you use. If something changes, that's no problem. You can easily make changes online. Check out all the fees in one overview.

You can open an account and identify yourself by appointment with the identity documents listed below:
In this case, you can only become a client at an ABN AMRO branch. Make an appointment at one of our branches to do this. You can do this by contacting us (standard call charges apply).
Is it also possible to open just a savings account?No. In order to open an ABN AMRO savings account, you have to have a Basic Payment Package. Once you have opened a bank account, you can open a savings account. This also allows you to apply for a credit card, for example.
The identity document details that have been entered are incorrect. Can I still make changes?After you upload your identity document, you will be asked to verify the details. You can change your name and date of birth if necessary. Your application may be rejected if the details cannot be properly verified. You can then restart the application.
Why do I need to provide an extract from the Municipal Personal Records Database (BRP)?We want to be sure that you are who you say you are when you open an account. This helps us to prevent fraud, for example abuse of your current account. For this reason, one of the things we need from you is an extract from the Municipal Personal Records Database (BRP). You can request it yourself at your municipality. You can open the account even without the extract, but some features of your current account will not be available in this case, for example deposits and cash withdrawals.
