What it is

Users without a Social Security Number can open a limited Revolut account, but access to certain products and features may be restricted based on immigration status and visa type. Revolut may request immigration documentation as part of the account opening process.

This analysis describes what Revolut's agreement states, permits, or reserves. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Regulatory applicability and practical outcomes may vary by jurisdiction, enforcement context, and individual circumstances. Read our methodology

ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

Your immigration status can directly affect which Revolut features you can use. Users relying on Revolut for financial services should check whether their visa type qualifies for the features they need before opening an account.

Interpretive note: The specific products and features restricted based on immigration status are not enumerated in the main terms, requiring reference to a separate supported visas page, which creates uncertainty about the full scope of restrictions applicable to any given user.

Medium Mar 23, 2026

The updated Terms of Service no longer document the Move Money Rules feature, which previously allowed users to set up automatic fund transfers across account pockets or currency exchanges based on custom conditions. The removal of this documentation means users cannot point to the terms as a reference for how this feature operates, what limits apply, or what fees may be charged. If the feature remains available in the app, its operational parameters are no longer formally described in the binding terms document.
