Yes you can, but not through their website. you have to call the number on the back of your card.

Supplement AMEX Plat Card [Non US-Citizen]
Am I allowed to request a supplement AMEX Plat Card for a non US citizen, but under my account? I believe AMEX is a bit more strict, unlike other card issuers where they just want the first and last name provided.
Sorry if this has been answered already, but I could not ding the proper keywords to yield any search results.

I have done this more than once, but both times were a few years ago, and the rules are always changing.
I think the first time I only had to provide DOB. The second time I had to provide DOB and I might have also had to send them a copy of an ID (Canadan passport).
In neither case was the AU a green card holder.
I don't remember exactly when these were, but I am thinking 2010 and 2011.

Not to hijack the thread but Amex has tightened up on authorized additional users that do not have ssn. I can also think of legitimate reasons you may not want a additional user SSN reported to amex as their credit report will come back with your address etc.

Amex is still issuing AU cards in the names of people that does not even match up with the SSN names info.

Not all US citizens have SSNs; and plenty of Amex AU cards have been issued on behalf of US person's foreign national relatives not eligible for a SSN. I hope this practice doesn't change.
