Can anyone apply for a Chase card without a Social Security Number?

I am asking because I do not live in the US and do not have US passport or SSN. I hold a United Kingdom passport and US based bank account and Platinum Master Card for over 10 years from HSBC which will show a very good credit history.

Thanks.
When I last applied for a Chase card in December, they said SSN was required, but I seem to remember having a box to indicate that I am a US citizen. Since you're not in that boat, my thought is that an SSN is a moot point, unless they only want to offer the card to American citizens. My thought is that you can still apply because I seem to remember one of those "if not a U.S. citizen, are you...." lines, so you may meet the requirements there.
