Public

Bank of North Dakota (BND) offers basic checking and savings accounts and other retail banking services to North Dakota residents. To prove North Dakota residency, an individual must have a North Dakota driver’s license or North Dakota government-issued photo identification card, and a physical address in North Dakota. A business must have a physical address in North Dakota and at least one signatory on the account must be a North Dakota resident.

Because of our unique structure as a state-owned bank, it is the Bank’s policy not to compete with the private sector for retail deposits. Therefore, convenience products such as debit cards, credit cards or online bill pay are not offered. BND has one location at 1200 Memorial Highway in Bismarck, North Dakota. In order to open a checking or savings account or purchase a CD, you must schedule an appointment to come to the Bank location during lobby hours, 8 a.m. – 5 p.m. CT, Monday – Friday.
