Both Citi and Boa have the same policy with respect to US

Both Citi and Boa have the same policy with respect to US and China accounts, which is limited by both Chinese and US banking law. A foreign account-holder can use his or her ATM card to withdraw money without an ATM fee, but cannot otherwise access the accounts--no deposits. I believe the blog recently discussed the restrictions on currency exchange from a China perspective. Generally, there are no US restrictions, only reporting requirements for movements of large currency amounts.
