Using Singapore credit card while working overseas?

Can you still continue using Singapore credit card even if you are working overseas permanently? Can you earn the points for foreign currency spending indefinitely this way?

Technically yes. I think you are aware that there are extra charges for using your card overseas, usually 3+% on the amount charged. If you value the points more than that, then by all means do so.

By the way, if you are working overseas, you should qualify for credit cards there, which may offer more attractive points. For e.g. The miles earn rate in US is pretty attractive.

I'm going to work overseas. What's the best credit card to use?

Best cards to use overseas to avoid fees Is it better to use cards like youtrip/revolut to avoid fees? Or to get credit cards that provide cashback/miles?

For cards with a high MPD earn rate for overseas spending would you recommend using these traditional credit cards, or multi-currency cards like YouTrip and Revolut to save on the FX fees?

Does it make sense to spend overseas on credit cards to earn miles instead of using a multicurrency card instead?

I'm a working adult in my 30s and have never owned a credit card. I now realise the usefulness and benefits and would like to take the first step. Can anyone recommend 2 cards and why?
