Yes. That is exactly what the process is for.
Obviously, the laws everywhere want to make sure those who provide credit (or do things under an agreement) are protected and have methods (there are many others) to enforce the agreement with those they did it for and made legal agreements with, when they don't act as they were supposed to. No state or society, wants to make it very possible for someone who fails to pay their legal obligations, fails to abide by any legal contract, to do so without recourse.
If the Cr Card co is the same or affiliated with your bank, you'll probably find part of the card agreement you made was they don't even have to garnish, they can just withdraw the amount owed from any account you have with them. Normally, you are responsible for all accruing interest, and any and all costs of the creditor having to take these actions to get what you owe them too.
