  The Government Travel Charge Card
 

Receiving Your Travel Charge Card

You will receive your government travel charge card in the mail within 10 days from the time the application is submitted.

If you have ATM authorization, the bank will mail the PIN separately. You should receive it within a few days of receiving your travel charge card. However, you may receive your PIN before you receive the travel charge card.

When you receive your travel charge card:

  1. Read the Cardholder Agreement. This is very important information.
  2. Sign your travel charge card.
  3. Follow the instructions to activate your travel charge card.
  4. Store your travel charge card in a secure location until you are ready to travel.
