Your passport to global banking.
The world is a big place full of exciting adventures. At Citibank, we want to help you enjoy every minute of your travels. Take advantage of Citibank's global presence by tapping into our international branch and ATM network, and international support services.
Before you leave home
For your convenience, you no longer need to contact Citibank to advise us of your travel plans. In the event any of your transactions are detected as irregular activity, we will endeavour to contact you as soon as possible via text or voice call using the mobile number we have on file to discuss the situation.
There are inherent risks to using your card overseas such as card theft and skimming, to protect your account security, we will temporarily suspend your account if you are not contactable and your account will remain blocked until we have contacted you. To minimise any inconvenience, it is important that you ensure we have your correct mobile number that you will be using whilst overseas. You can update your mobile number by logging onto Citibank Online, click Services > My Profile > Personal Information > View / Update details.

Lost or stolen cards
If your card is lost or stolen, please contact us as soon as possible, at any time, via our international customer service number +61 2 8225 0615. One of our Customer Service Officers will review your recent transactions, block your account to stop any fraudulent activity and organise to issue you with a new card.

If you ever misplace your wallet or get caught in a bind while travelling, you may be able to access your money at a Citibank branch.
