Can I use my EBT card in other countries?
No, EBT cards can only be used within the United States and its territories. The Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) program is a government assistance program designed to provide nutrition assistance to eligible low-income individuals and families. The program is administered by state agencies in the US and strictly bound by its regulations. EBT cards are typically accepted at authorized retailers such as supermarkets, grocery stores, and farmers markets within the US. These benefits cannot be used for purchases outside the country, making the EBT card invalid for transactions in other countries. It is essential for recipients to use their EBT cards responsibly and within the guidelines established by the program.
