I am a US citizen who resides in Japan. I own property, maintain a mailing address and have both a bank and brokerage account in the the US. My credit and my wife's are flawless. I have a credit card issued from Citibank in
Tokyo, however, it is almost always rejected when I try to purchase products on-line from US businesses. To the best of my knowledge, residency in the the US is required to get a credit card from a US company/bank. Are there
any banks/companies who will issue a milage reward card to a US citizen who resides in Japan?

As long as you're a citizen of the US, all you should have to do is to apply using your US address-because if you use your Japan address, you will more than likely be turned down for residing out of the service area-and then once you're approved, ask them to change the address to your address in Japan. But verify first that they can send a card there-there are some countries to which a credit card can't be sent. I don't believe Japan is one of them but better safe than sorry! Hope this helps!
