Points to note for New Correspondence / Residential Address:

  1. For securities accounts, customers are only required to update the correspondence address of the linked current account.
  2. P O Box is not allowed for the correspondence address of any investment account.
  3. P O Box is not allowed for the correspondence address of any credit card or loan account.
  4. In compliance with the securities dealing restrictions in the USA, the Bank will not accept any address in the USA as the correspondence address of securities accounts and investment fund accounts.
  5. For change of residential address to an address in the EEA / UK: New regulation on key information documents (KIDS) for packaged retail and insurance-based investment products (Regulation (EU) No. 1286/2014, commonly referred to as the PRIIPs Regulation, came into effect on 1 January 2018. The PRIIPs Regulation impacts DBS Bank (Hong Kong) Limited (“DBS”) ability to continue to offer to retail investors, who are residents (regardless of nationality (country/region)) in the EEA / UK, structured notes and other products that fall within the scope of the PRIIPs Regulation. DBS treats all our clients whose beneficial owners are residents in the EEA / UK as retail investors by default. (Note: For trust accounts, DBS treats all EEA / UK resident settlors as retail investors). Securities account and/or investment fund account, if any, will therefore be blocked from performing all purchase transactions. For more information on the PRIIPs Regulation, please visit the DBS website at https://www.dbs.com.hk. Please contact your Relationship Manager for enquiries.
