You can obtain a credit card at the age of 18.

One does not automatically "get a credit card" ... rather, one applies to obtain one. If your credit history is fully intact, that is you always pay all your bills on time and have been doing so for several years and have never missed or been late on any payments, then you stand a good chance on getting one after you apply. Ignore all the snail-mail offers for credit cards - those often have many 'rewards' that are just too good to be true - watch the interest rate, too - some are very very steep.
