Unless there is something REALLY odd about your card, yes, you can.
However if you plan to make large or unusual purchases you may want to call
your security department and let them know... I have run into trouble there
in the past when overseas, the programs monitoring purchases flagged my
purchases (what do you mean! 400 USD on soccer buses is a NORMAL purchase,
darn it) and I got called by the security department to verify it was me.
In one case they turned the card off till I called, preventing further
purchases. This is fraud protection and I appreciate it, but it can be a bit
surprising/embarassing if it happens.
Hope that helps.
