However, if your balance is over $1000 you may contact ePassporte's customer service department to request a higher ATM withdrawal limit. You will be required to fax a government issued ID to ePassporte to verify yourself when you make this request. Also, most ATM networks allow you to withdraw a maximum of $1000 per day.
