PNC Foreign Currency Services for Travel
Traveling? Need to send or receive international funds? PNC can help.
Convenient Foreign Currency Services for PNC Customers
Traveling outside the United States? Stop by a local PNC branch to order foreign currency before you go to enable you to pay for immediate expenses such as taxi fares, tips and meals[1]. In most cases, your foreign currency order can be delivered to your branch within 24 to 48 hours. And when you return with excess currency, PNC can buy it back for immediate U.S. dollars. We offer competitive rates and no transaction fees.
Sending money overseas? If you are making an overseas purchase, paying international tuition fees, or need to send a deposit to a bank account outside the U.S., PNC can help you send an international foreign currency wire transfer by debiting your U.S. dollar account with PNC.
Some restrictions apply. Visit your local PNC Branch for additional details regarding international foreign currency wire transfers.
Receiving money from abroad? PNC can provide assistance with the receipt of electronic currency payments from countries outside of the U.S. Additionally, PNC can convert foreign denominated checks which are drawn on foreign banks to U.S. dollars for deposit into your account with PNC. Some restrictions apply.
Visit your local PNC Branch for additional details regarding foreign denominated checks.
