Will having bank accounts in two countries affect my visa application in Berlin?

Jan 20, 2026

I want to apply at the embassy of Berlin for the DTV. I do live in Berlin, my main address is there and I have one bank account with that address, but I also have another bank account registered on my bulgarian address, since I have my second home there (I am legally registered in both countries). Does anyone knows if this could cause problems? I would need to hand in bank statements from both banks since i do not have 500k on one account but just combined from both accounts.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user seeks advice on whether holding bank accounts in both Germany and Bulgaria could complicate their application for a DTV at the Berlin embassy. They need to submit bank statements from both accounts due to not having sufficient funds in a single account. Comments suggest that as long as the situation is explained clearly in a cover letter along with supporting proof, it should not pose a problem.
