You'll need a little bit of SOL to pay the "rent" to create the token account, however this SOL can also be recovered when you close the token account. I believe its around 0.002 SOL

    Just to add up you can only close the token account if its balance is 0.

  • What's "just to add up" for? @AbdullahQureshi I already see that you've added something up.
