Is it mandatory to have a U.S. bank account for refund?

Hi everyone, I am not an American citizen and will soon leave the U.S.

I worked here for six months and I know I will have to file my taxes in 2024 because I worked a few months in 2023.

I will likely get a refund next year and I wanted to ask the following question, do I need an American bank account in order to receive my refund?

I ask this question because I do have one at Wells Fargo but I will lose my phone number associated with that account when I leave the country and I must keep at least $500 on it for several months in order to avoid paying monthly fees.

I do have a Wise Digital currency wallet that can hold multiple currencies including dollars. It even has an account and routing numbers. Do you think I can use that wallet to receive my next refund instead of my Wells Fargo bank account?

 

Thank you very much!
