No permissions are necessary, you just need an account that has no privileges.
The account needs only to be able to connect to the server.

For example, either of these statements will create the account:

CREATE USER 'vuser'@'remote-host' IDENTIFIED BY 'vpass';

GRANT USAGE ON *.* TO 'vuser'@'remote-host' IDENTIFIED BY 'vpass';
