Anyone with an Epassporte Visa knows this?

    I am considering buying an Epassporte Visa as wiring ouotside the US costs $50, my thinking is that withdrawing with Visa abroad will work out cheaper.

    I have to pay $35 for a Visa, anyone knows how long for are Epassporte Visa cards valid for? I dont mind paying $35 as long as it is a one off payment and not every year.

    Thank you

    I have the epass visa, but can't remember if it's a one time fee or annual.
    If you think $35 a year is too much, maybe you should increase you business or just quit... (sorry, don't mean to be rude)
    However it's cheaper than the $50 wire transfer fee (unless you make a withdraw every other year only).

    A Visa card must always have a expiry date otherwise you can not use it.

    Can you check the expiry date on your Visa card? Is it a one year expiry date since you bought it or longer?

    Thank you

    The card is valid for at least 5 years, but epassporte might have a yearly fee.

    I don't know where you got your card from, but I have now contacted Epassporte customer service and they have told me the card is valid for 2 years from the date of issuance.

    Yep, you are right. I am wrong. Didn't had the card near me at the time of my last post. Now I do and it is 2 years, sorry for the mistake...
