No matter in which country and which bank you have the account with. If you want to close it then you need to follow certain rules and regulations. And in this guide of mine, we will be discussing the same. I will tell you the complete steps that you need to follow to close Civil Bank account.
The process is very simple the first thing you should note is there should be no dues pending or negative balance. In case you have then you will first have to clear those. And the bank will allow you to start the process to close the account. But once the process starts you can not use the account in any way.
Also, keep in mind that if you have set up any automatic payments in your account then those will start failing. So you should cancel those automatic payments from your Civil Bank Limited account. And set them up in your alternative bank account.
As of now in banks operating in Nepal, particularly in the case of Civil Bank. There is no online method to close the account. So you will have to follow the offline method in which the account holder has to visit the branch of the bank. And if you want to close a joint bank account then all the account holders should provide consent to the bank.
