Most Bank of America branches open at 9 a.m. on weekdays, but hours vary by location and day of the week

Bank of America does not have a single opening time across all branches. A typical weekday branch opens at 9 a.m. and closes at 5 p.m. or 6 p.m., but some locations open as early as 8 a.m., and urban branches may stay open until 7 p.m. Saturday hours usually run 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. or 2 p.m. Most branches are closed on Sundays, though a small number of high-traffic locations have Sunday hours from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. The only way to know your specific branch's hours is to look them up by location.

Bank of America's website has a branch locator tool where you enter your address or ZIP code and see the hours for every nearby location. You can also call your branch directly, or use Google Maps to search "Bank of America near me" — the hours appear in the search results. If you are planning a visit, checking ahead takes 30 seconds and saves a trip.

How to find your branch's hours on the Bank of America website

Go to bankofamerica.com and look for the "Locations" or "Find a Branch" link, usually in the top navigation or footer. Enter your ZIP code or street address. The search results show all nearby branches with their full hours, address, phone number, and services offered at each location. You can also filter by service type — for example, if you need a safe deposit box or a mortgage specialist — and the results show which branches have those services.

Once you find your branch, note the phone number. If you have questions about whether a specific service is available or whether you need an appointment, calling ahead takes one minute and prevents a wasted trip. Many branches now require appointments for certain transactions, especially during busy times.

What to do if your branch has limited hours

Some Bank of America branches operate on reduced schedules, particularly in smaller towns or rural areas. If your nearest branch has hours that do not work for you, check whether there is another location within reasonable distance. The branch locator shows all locations in your area, so you can compare hours across multiple branches.

Bank of America also offers online and mobile banking for many transactions — transfers, bill pay, check deposit, and account management do not require a branch visit. If you need to speak with someone, you can call Bank of America's customer service line at 1-800-432-1000, available 24 hours a day. For complex issues that require in-person help, ask the phone representative which branch location would be best for your situation and whether you should schedule an appointment.

Weekend and holiday hours

Saturday hours are the most variable across Bank of America locations. Most branches open at 9 a.m. on Saturday, but closing time ranges from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. depending on the branch. A few high-volume locations stay open until 5 p.m. on Saturday. Very few branches are open on Sunday — only select locations in major cities have Sunday hours, usually 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.

On federal holidays, Bank of America branches are closed. This includes New Year's Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. If you need banking services on a holiday, use the mobile app or call customer service. ATMs are available 24/7 for cash withdrawals and deposits at most locations.

Using ATMs and mobile banking when branches are closed

Bank of America ATMs are available around the clock at most branch locations, in grocery stores, and at other retail partners. You can withdraw cash, deposit checks, transfer money between accounts, and check your balance without visiting a branch. The mobile app and website offer the same services plus bill pay, peer-to-peer transfers, and account management.

If you need to deposit a check outside branch hours, use mobile check deposit through the Bank of America app — take a photo of the front and back of the check, and the funds are usually available within one business day. For cash deposits, you will need to visit an ATM that accepts deposits or wait until the branch reopens.

Planning ahead for in-person visits

Before you go to a Bank of America branch, know what you need. straightforward transactions like withdrawals, deposits, and account questions can usually be handled in 10 to 15 minutes during normal hours. More complex work — opening a new account, explore for a credit product, or resolving a dispute — may require an appointment, especially at busy branches.

Call ahead or check the branch's page on the Bank of America website to see if appointments are recommended. During peak times (lunch hours, Friday afternoons, and the first and last days of the month), branches are busiest. If you can visit mid-morning on a Tuesday or Wednesday, you will likely have a shorter wait.
