The Blocked Account (Sperrkonto): Your Proof of Funds
The Blocked Account (Sperrkonto) is vital proof of funds for your visa. First, choose an officially approved provider by comparing their fees and service levels. Then, transfer the minimum annual amount so the funds are securely blocked for the duration of your visa. Upon arriving in Germany, open a local current account (Girokonto) to activate your payouts and receive fixed monthly sums of approximately €934.
