Can I deposit a check from another bank?

Yes, you can usually deposit a check drawn on another bank into your account for clearing, provided the check meets the required conditions and regulations.

Key points

• An initial entry on the account doesn't always mean the check has been cleared; it could still be returned as a bounced check.

• Ask your bank about the clearing timeframe, fees, and availability date before considering it as a final balance.

The figures, fees and limits in this answer vary by bank and change over time — confirm them with your bank or the official source before acting.
