Correct. American Express has a formal program called Global Transfers which transfers your credit history (not your account) from one country to another. This does not necessarily waive the local requirements for opening an account, and it does not include every market.

Evidently Chase does not have a similar program, and a mass market company isn't likely to create one on the fly for an individual customer.
