KC Overseas Education works with leading banking and forex partners to provide students with reliable Forex Card options that suit their destination, travel plans, and spending requirements. Your counsellor will help you choose the most suitable Forex Card based on your individual needs.

It is recommended to apply for your Forex Card at least 1–2 weeks before your departure. This allows enough time for documentation, card issuance, currency loading, and activation, ensuring you are financially prepared before you travel.

The required documents may vary depending on the bank, but generally include:

  • Valid Passport 
  • Student Visa 
  • University Admission/Offer Letter 
  • PAN Card 
  • Air Ticket or Travel Itinerary (if applicable) 
  • KYC documents as required by the bank 

KC Overseas Education assists students in understanding the documentation requirements and completing the application process smoothly.
