Official answers
- What does a BKT ATM charge a card issued by a bank abroad?
- BKT's Individual Terms and Conditions for March 2026, section 2 "Card issued by abroad Banks", item 2.1, lists a cash withdrawal commission at BKT ATMs. For both debit and credit cards the minimum is 700 ALL and the maximum is 2,000 ALL. The footnote says the commission is a percentage of the withdrawal and depends on the country where the card was issued. The ATM displays the commission before you confirm. The card issuer's own fee is separate. BKT Individual Terms and Conditions (March 2026)
- Does BKT publish one percentage for every foreign card?
- No. The same footnote says the percentage depends on the issuing country and is shown on the ATM. The tariff prints the 700 ALL minimum and the 2,000 ALL maximum, not one rate. This page does not substitute a single percentage. BKT Individual Terms and Conditions (March 2026)
