In order to prevent identity theft, identity fraud, money laundering, terrorist financing, etc, the RBI had directed all banks and financial institutions to put in place a policy framework to know their customers before opening any account which known as ( KYC – Know Your Customer ) .
This means  the Banks can open foreign offshore account for non-residents if they verify and assure their clients identities/activities and this is one of the main reasons why we have difficulties to open foreign bank account either in USA or Europe .
All of the banks and financial institutions around the world are responsible to verify their clients activities and identities making sure that they don’t practice any illegal activities before opening any account.
Due to all above If you’re verified with your HSBC local Bank complying their  KYC ( know your customer ) norms and verification process and already got your own local HSBC saving / business account  then you can open another  HSBC Offshore bank account  abroad ( US/EUROPE etc ) as non-resident.
