Banking – State Department Federal Credit Union (SDFCU)

The State Department Federal Credit Union (SDFCU) is one of the few in the United States that is open to Americans abroad. Their global-friendly financial services make SDFCU accounts popular among expats—including US Embassy employees and overseas professionals. In addition to traditional banking services like loans and free checking, SDFCU members enjoy credit cards with zero foreign transaction fees, free access to ATMs worldwide, and foreign currency exchange services. Membership is open to all US citizens and you do not need a United States address to apply.

American Citizens Abroad (ACA) formed a partnership with State Department Federal Credit Union (SDFCU), which makes this banking solution available to ACA members. Connect with them to learn more about ACA-enabled SDFCU accounts.
