Check LockBox
Overview
Benefits
Check LockBox
Overview
Write a local cheque in the US and remit funds to India with Cheque LockBox. Avail of this facility to credit funds directly to the beneficiary's account in HDFC Bank.

Cheque LockBox is more economical than a SWIFT remittance and a safe and efficient means to remit funds to India.

All you need to do is fill in a Cheque Box deposit slip, attach a US dollar denominated cheque and post it to a local mailbox. Through a central cheque collection system, our Correspondent Bank collects it, sends it to for local clearing on the following working day and on receiving the funds, we credit the beneficiary's account.
