PARTNER BANKING
Blocked accounts.
Banking with partners.
FIB is a banking partner for providers of blocked accounts. We develop and deliver banking solutions for or with partners supporting international students and professionals on their path to Germany.
What a blocked account makes possible.
A blocked account is one way to demonstrate sufficient financial resources for a stay in Germany. Funds are deposited in advance and released in defined monthly amounts under the applicable conditions. This helps account holders plan their living expenses.
For international students
A financial foundation for study and daily life in Germany.
For international professionals
A structured way to demonstrate financial resources where required for the intended stay.
For our partners
A regulated banking institution behind a service integrated into the partner’s customer offering.
Partnership with clear responsibilities.
Our partners bring their customer relationships and service experience. FIB contributes the banking foundation. The precise allocation of account opening, customer support and operational responsibilities is defined in each partnership.
Already have a blocked account?
For account opening, documents or an existing account, please contact the provider through which you arranged your blocked account.
Requirements depend on the purpose of stay and the competent authorities. A blocked account does not itself guarantee that a visa will be granted.
