What is a blocked account?

Of course, there are various forms of blocked accounts. In this section we provide information about the blocked account you probably need if you want to study in Germany and if your home country does not belong to the European Union or the “Schengen states”. Among others, this applies to:

• • Turkey
  • China
  • India

• Russia
• Ukraine
• Cameroon
• Vietnam
• South Corea
• Morocco

In these and many other countries you need to prove your ability to support yourself during your stay in Germany when applying for a visa. The most common method to fulfill this requirement is opening a German blocked account. Please contact the responsible embassy or consulate general if you want to find out whether you need a blocked account for your visa.

Do you get the reasons as to why your visa got rejected by the embassy?

If you get your Visa rejected, don’t be discouraged, you can try again! The good side to the rejection is that once you get the letter from the embassy, you can use it to your advantage. In the letter it will be explained why you got your Visa rejected, so use that information the next time you apply!
