corpsnerd09	You go to the US Embassy or Consulate and they will find a way for you to get back home, but they won't pay for it. You probably have to find someone to send you money from home, or have them open a credit card for you and use it just that once. Next time, use traveller's checks. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Andy	Surely you've seen the traveler's checks and credit card ads? If Amex hasn't any branch or correspondent in the country where you are and you've had your Amex checks stolen, they will send you money via Western Union. Or they will send you a credit card via FedEx. Money can always be wired to you. If all else fails, the State Department can wire it, but perhaps more bureaucratically and less efficiently than banks, travel agencies and credit card issuers. One can get a repatriation loan from the State Department but it's not easy or quick. Somewhat more easily you can get a temporary passport to enable you to return home. A permanent one can be made up later in the U.S. Of course you have to identify yourself somehow. But it's all been done before by others; they're used to it. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
