زمینه فرهنگی

In Egypt, banking is transitioning from a cash-heavy society to a digital one. Opening an account is seen as a significant step toward adulthood or professional stability. The word 'Ayiz' is the hallmark of the Egyptian dialect, distinguishing it from the Modern Standard Arabic 'Urido'.

💡

Bring your ID

In Egypt, you can't do anything without your 'Bitaga' (National ID). Always have it ready before saying this phrase.

⚠️

Gender Matters

Remember to use `عايزة` (Ayza) if you are a woman. Using the masculine version won't stop the process, but it sounds slightly off.

What It Means

This phrase is your golden ticket to the Egyptian financial system. عايز (Ayiz) means 'I want.' أفتح (Aftah) means 'to open.' حساب بنكي (Hisab Banki) is simply 'a bank account.' It is the most natural way to state your purpose. You aren't asking for permission here. You are stating an intention. It sounds confident but polite.

How To Use It

Walk up to the customer service desk. Wait for the 'Efandem?' (Yes, sir/ma'am?). Then drop this phrase. If you are female, change عايز to عايزة (Ayza). It is that simple. You can add لو سمحت (law samaht) at the end. This means 'if you please.' It adds a nice touch of class.

When To Use It

Use this the moment you enter a bank branch. You can also use it over the phone. If you are calling a hotline, this is your opening line. It works when talking to an HR person at a new job too. They might ask if you have an account for your salary. You can reply, 'No, but عايز أفتح حساب بنكي.'

When NOT To Use It

Don't use this at a grocery store or a pharmacy. Obviously. Also, avoid using it with a teller at the cash window. Tellers handle deposits and withdrawals. They don't usually open accounts. You need the 'Customer Service' (Khidmet el-Omala) desks. Using it with a teller is like asking a chef for a table. They can't really help you.

Cultural Background

Banking in Egypt is a social event. Expect to wait. Expect to be offered tea if you're in a private branch. The phrase reflects the Egyptian preference for directness in business. Egyptians value personal connection. Even though the phrase is standard, saying it with a smile matters. Banking used to be very paper-heavy. Now it is digital, but the phrase remains the same.

Common Variations

If you want to sound more formal, use أرغب في (Arghab fi). But honestly, عايز is much more common. You might also hear ممكن أفتح حساب؟ (Mumkin aftah hisab?). This means 'Is it possible to open an account?' It is a bit more tentative. If you are specifically opening a salary account, say حساب مرتب (Hisab morattab).

نکات کاربردی

The phrase is neutral and safe for all verbal interactions. The key variation is gender-based (Ayiz vs. Ayza).

💬

The 'Minimum Deposit' Secret

Most banks require a 'Hadd Adna' (minimum balance). Ask 'Eh el-hadd el-adna?' right after you say you want to open the account.

Yes, but 'Ayiz' is specifically Egyptian. In other countries, they might use أبي (Abi) in the Gulf or بدي (Baddi) in the Levant.

Yes, but it's better to specify by saying حساب شركة (Hisab sharika) instead of just a general account.

Add لو سمحت (law samaht) or من فضلك (min fadlak) at the end of the sentence.

You would say عايز أفتح حساب توفير (Ayiz aftah hisab tawfeer).

Usually, yes. Sometimes people just say حساب في البنك (Hisab fil bank), which means 'an account in the bank'.

It is optional. You can say أنا عايز or just عايز. Both are perfectly natural.

You would say عايزين نفتح حساب (Ayzeen niftah hisab), meaning 'We want to open an account'.

It is a bit too casual for a formal email. Use أرجو التكرم بفتح حساب for written formal requests.

It literally means 'I open'. It comes from the root F-T-H, which is the same as the word for 'key' (Miftah).

In major Egyptian banks, most staff speak English well, but starting in Arabic with this phrase earns you immediate respect.
