Opening a bank account in Spain for non-EU citizen

On

Dear all,

I am writting on behalf of a ESR from Iran recruited on a MSCA ITN project in Spain. Since January, his has not been able to open a bank account. All requests were rejected as he is a non-EU citizen and does not have the NIE card yet (in process). Did someone face this kind of problem? Any solution?

Thank you very much and best regards,

Pauline
