Public security organs may freeze personal bank accounts based on the needs of investigating crimes, and the freezing period shall not exceed six months. You can continue to freeze before the expiration of half a year, and there is no limit to the number of freezes. Another way is to go to the public security bureau to prove that the money in your card is legal. The bank card is unfrozen at the bank where the bank card is opened, and the Public Security Bureau cannot unfreeze the bank card. The process is as follows: 1. On bank working days, cardholders bring their second-generation ID cards and bank-issued cards to bank branches; 2. Fill out the bank card unfreezing application form; 3. Counter staff should go through relevant procedures and confirm the reasons for freezing; 4. Staff confirm the freezing Whether the reasons have been resolved; 5. Unfreeze the card after confirming that the cardholder has resolved the reasons for freezing; 6. Unfreezing is completed. It is recommended that after consulting a lawyer, you should surrender to the public security organ and try to reduce the sentencing circumstances, or entrust a lawyer to intervene in the defense as soon as possible. According to the law, only the people's courts, people's procuratorates, public security organs and other law enforcement agencies can request banks to freeze their accounts. The maximum freezing period is 6 months, and will be automatically unfrozen after expiration. There is no thawing period at all. As long as the freezing period required by law enforcement agencies is reached or the unfreezing notice is received, the bank will unfreeze immediately.
