On average, foreign transaction fees range from 1 to 3 percent. However, some card issuers do not charge foreign transaction fees to cardholders.

Tips for Avoiding Chase Bank Foreign Transaction Fees

If you don't have one already, the easiest approach to avoid foreign transaction fees is to obtain a credit card that doesn't charge them. However, there are alternative ways to avoid paying these fees:

Use Local Currency

If you use your credit card to purchase in another country, you may be asked whether you want to pay in US dollars or the local currency. It may be preferable to use the local money in this situation. If you choose to pay in local currency, your bank will handle the conversion for you and will most likely offer you a better rate.

Limit ATM Usage Abroad

You will almost certainly be charged a foreign transaction fee and a foreign ATM fee every time you use a foreign ATM. If at all possible, avoid using an ATM. If you do need to use one, withdraw as much cash as you'll need for the duration of your trip to prevent paying too much.

Determining the best option can get overwhelming at times, or you may incur some of these fees due to unforeseen circumstances. However, DoNotPay has just the solution for this.
