It depends. If you are not itemizing deductions on your federal return they are not needed. If there is no reason for your state return, such as elderly allowances or special credits there's no need for concern.

If you are referring to having direct deposit of a state tax refund sent to an international account, this generally is not allowed. Most state agencies require a U.S. bank account or have a paper check mailed to your address. You can verify with your state's department of revenue.   @thewatchtower805
