    Does anybody know a swiss bank with the same conditions as Amex Bank (they only charge 1% for changing from USD to EUR)?

    Most Swiss banks will not levy a special surcharge like the one described at all if you have an account with them. The difference may be in the spread though.

    Hi,

    depending on the amounts and actual banks check paypal.
    I use them yo juggle between USD EUR and STR and send to the appropriate bank which I've registered with them. There is a small "fee" in the conversion but for me it works great for smaller sums

    Latvia banks or any other NOW European Union banks are not any more offshore banks and St, Vincente or other bank wishes seeks to many verified papers (At St, Vincente one bank seeks 10 copies!!! Verified)
    But Swiss banks seeks just verified Passport copy ! Thats all.
    The cheapest way to :) open an account there is to check at :) www.my-swiss-account.info They are cheapest on web!!:)

    Swiss Currency (Francs) are CHF, not Euros or "STR. Also Switzerland is not in the EU.
