As a NL citizen who moved to the UK 2 years ago, I kept my Dutch AMEX card, with my pre-existing dutch address and opened a UK Amex card, even before I arrived with global transfer. Naturally the UK Amex now has a UK address. After you have opened the account, my understanding is that they don’t really care anymore about your “ongoing” eligibility – as long as you keep a local address and ideally a local number for future correspondence. Unless they do a ad-hoc financial review – in which case then I don’t know anymore.

Both the NL and UK Amex are pretty much the same, except that the NL one comes with Schiphol Privium (basically Amsterdam airport fast pass). Every month I travel between UK and NL so I can’t live without it. And correct, UK nationals no longer qualify for it after Brexit. (UK nationals who moved here pre brexit, and have a residence permit can though).

I don’t have a partner, so I don’t care about the supplementary platinum card, which seems to be NL only tho. Not UK or US.

This is really useful, thanks. Do you have separate logins or is everything under one account?
