Foreign Check Returned 4 Months After Deposit

Answered by: 

Question: 
We had a foreign check returned to us from the clearing US bank. The date of deposit was June 11 and we are just getting it back more than 4 months later. Are we able to refuse this?
Answer: 

A foreign check can be returned under the rules and regulations of the foreign country. Many countries do not have the same rules as the US. Foreign checks should only be accepted from credit worthy customers or sent for collection.
