Bank Account

Opening a bank account

Having a bank account in a German bank is a requirement for all students. You will need an account in order to make the contract for your room; it is also needed for your student health insurance. For many banks as a student, you don't have to pay any fees to open and maintain a bank account (unless you are above a certain age).

Here you will find a list of some banks located at the main street of Freising's center. Normally every bank has English speaking staff members.
