Opening a new bank account in Ecuador has become a little more difficult recently.

This video walks you through the entire process, including the documents you're going to need.

Ecuador has 5 main visa types that are popular with expats.

We cover these visas in detail with our guest, Joseph Guznay. Joseph is one of, if not the, most respected visa facilitators in Ecuador.

Joseph opens up to share some of the expert knowledge he's gained from helping expats with over 5,000 successful visa applications.

This type of detailed visa information can be very difficult to find, so we sincerely hope it helps answer some of your residency visa questions.
