Thanks.
You don't need one.
Only an account for the respective country.
I've got accounts in the US, UK and Germany. All link to the very same German credit card.
You may receive a note such as "you've bought lots of books outside of your original region in the last few weeks. Did you move recently?". But still they don't force any account onto you.
Only one potential issue: Not all services are free. You can download books globally for free. Meaning: You can buy via US account in, let's say, Europe and download in Europe for free. But you can't download tons of daily newspapers for free for example. You'll receive a note on your Kindle, if this gets critical. This note perfectly explains, which services are free and which would generate costs. But for those you easily with the push of a button can switch to another account...
