Local banking essentials

What to check before opening an account in Port Moresby

Regulation

Banks must be licensed by the Bank of Papua New Guinea under the Banks and Financial Institutions Act, and mobile money and payment service providers are regulated under the National Payment System Act. Confirm the licence on the BPNG's registers before holding kina with a provider.

Local account details

Papua New Guinea has no IBAN entry: PNG banks assign their own numbers, and a wire abroad is built from the beneficiary bank's BIC plus the account details.

Local currency: PGK (Papua New Guinean kina)

Payments and transfers

The BPNG operates the country's real-time gross settlement arrangements, and the banking market is concentrated in a handful of banks led by BSP (Bank South Pacific) and Kina Bank; everyday digital payments lean heavily on bank mobile apps and wallets, with BSP's mobile banking and MiCash and Kina Bank's app-based wallets widely used, plus Digicel's CellMoni mobile money on the telecom side. Outside Port Moresby and a few urban centres, cash and mobile wallets matter far more than branch or card infrastructure.
