What is Account Payee Cheque and Crossed Cheque?

I know whoever have bank account might have came across these two words while writing cheque or interacting with the bank. But do you know the difference between these two and how and at what time one must opt for these two facilities of writing cheque?

Before proceeding further, first let us understand the parties involved in cheque transactions. There are mainly three parties involved in cheque transactions and are as below.

1) Drawer-He is a person who holds the account and has written and signing authority on cheque. Therefore, he issues cheques of his bank account. He is directing banks to pay a certain amount of money to the certain person or to the bearer of the cheque. Therefore, in simple words, you may say that a person who holds the bank account and who sign on cheque is called the drawer.

2) Drawee-Drawee is a party upon whom the cheque is written. The drawee is your bank. So drawer is giving instruction to drawee to pay an amount mentioned on the checque to the person named or to the bearer of the checque. When your bank follows the instruction and pay the cash to the person whose name mentioned on cheque or to the bearer of cheque then it is called as “cheque is honored”. If payment not done, then it is called “cheque dishonored”.

3) Payee-He is a person to whom the payment will be made. His name will be mentioned on cheque, so he is an authorized person to receive cash. So if drawer himself need to withdraw cash from his account using cheque then he need to write as SELF in the payable field of the cheque. In such case drawer himself becomes payee.

What is Crossed Cheque?

Crossed Cheque

From above image, you notice how to change the normal cheque leaf into crossed cheque. Once you cross the cheque and mention the payee name (in above example, it is my name) then I can only encash this cheque by depositing to my Bank Account. However, do remember that in crossed cheque payee is free to make a further endorsement. For example, in the above example payee name is mine. Instead of cashing it to my bank account I can further endorse the cheque to anyone, for example to Mr. Satish by writing and signing on back of cheque leaf. Further Mr.Satish either can encash this cheque or he can endorse to someone, for example to Mr.Rohan by writing and signing on back of cheque leaf.

So by mere crossing you are no longer making payment to PAYEE ONLY. The payee can further endorse or cash it according to his wish. Also in case of dishonor of cheque (in the above example), Mr.Rohan can sue Mr.Satish and in return Mr.Satish to me and finally I can sue to the drawer of cheque.

What is Account Payee Cheque?

Account Payee Cheque

You notice that along with crossing two lines at the corner you also need to write as “A/C Payee Only”. If you do so, then one can’t endorse the same cheque to others. So in the above example, the cheque must be encashed by depositing to payee account (In the above example it is in my name). This makes secure payment to payee only, but any other third parties. This protects any misuse of cheque.

    Hello Basavaraj Tonagatti.

    I did a favor for a family member by depositing a check that says: A/C Payee Only. The bank said they could not deposit it. They didn’t even know the reason why the system not letting the teller. They said the account holder had to come in person. Account holder has been sick thus me coming as a favor.

    Do you know what is this about?

    Thank you kindly in advance!

    Hi Sir, i happen to get a rented vehicle last week from car rental vendor. He asked me for a cheque which i crossed at the left top corner and wrote a/c and then signed it with date and also wrote at the back side as car surity check. Which he didn’t return due to some reason. Is it risky? Or is it fine to let it go and relax? Please suggest!

    Hi Basavaraj -ji,

    First off, thank you for the informative article.

    I gave Mr X a cheque which I double crossed but didn’t write “A/C Payee only” as I was ignorant. Now on my records it shows that the amount is credited to Mr Y, which I think because he endorsed the cheque. Does this means that Mr X is not at all involved in this transfer, meaning as per the bank transaction is from me to Mr Y. If yes, is in it a loop hole for tax evasions and stuff like that.

    Thank you

    Sir I went to bank for payment through cheque everything was correct except the date format. I used slash (/) in the date format and 2018 was written on the right side of the date format. The banker refuses me to give the payment from my own account. who was wrong in such case. Shall I write a complaint against that banker.

    I found this for a specific search. Thanks for addressing this. My wife issued a Ac payee cheque to a General Insurance company towards her insurance premium. Within 2 days on a holiday, an sms notification from the bank came suggesting she has issued a cheque favouring some CCCCMS POOL AC NONUTI and if she has not issued she must inform the bank before 12.30. From the amount we knew it was the insurance, but the cheque was issued in favour of a major company and not the any pool account referenced. We frantically tried to contact the officials in the insurance company. As it was a holiday no one was available for a couple of hours. Then we got hold of one person who had in fact collected the cheque. He felt there was a high probability that it must have been a collection agency, as his company engages such an agency, but could not be absolutely sure. We let the opportunity for intervention go. On getting the passbook updated, we find the credit is in favour of the Pool account and the name of the insurance agency is no where to be found.

    I asked the senior in charge at that time, and she simply responded if in doubt we should have responded to the sms notification with a stop instruction. The front end staff at the insurance company were unable to assure the payment has been received, and still asking us not to escalate the issue. The bank staff said escalate the issue in writing if you want and we will show a xerox copy of the cheque.

    I am disturbed with these people and their attitude. If I issued a Cheque to A, they have no business crediting it to B, and recording it in my account statement. If A gave the cheque to B for collection, and bank honours B as A’s agent, that is between them. My record in my account statement should still say the payment is to the name of A. It can not reflect the name of B.

    It so happened that when I finished my conversation with the bank, I got a message to the effect the insurance certificate arrived at my home. That the insurance co received the amount so soon, and despatched the certificate is surprising. It appears they have endorsed/ assigned the cheque to B, and went on to process the renewal application without waiting. While I appreciate such speed and behind the scene cooperation, I feel they are creating a problem to me in the future. The next time when a notification names a credit to a party other than the one we actually favoured, should we stop the payment or not? How are we to know A has assigned the instrument to B? How can a record exist in my account statement, that favours an unknown code, when our cheque was ‘account payee’to a specific company? Can such deviant process not lead to frauds?

    Can you throw light on this?

      Ram-Mr.X can endorse and give it to Y only if the DD issues is less than Rs.20,000. More than Rs.20,000 DDs will be issued only as Account Payee.

    Dear Basavaraj, Thanks for creating a great reference on this topic and answering reader’s questions. Here is my question.

    I think due to space limitations my grandfather (now passed away) had put my name with last name initialized in some bonds when I was minor. I received a cheque from ICICI which has my surname as initial (it has full firstname and middle name) followed by UG my grandfather’s name followed by Canara Bank Account WXYZ. The cheque is issued by ICICI with remark “a/c payee only”.

    I opened an account in ICICI but the account has my full name (first name then middle name and last name).

    Please recommend the right way to endorse the cheque and submit to ICICI bank for deposit. Please note there is no ICICI where I currently live and I will be sending this cheque with friend to be deposited into ICICI to my account.

    Thank you so much

        Dear Basavaraj,
        The cheque issued by ICICI was dropped through my friend in Belgaum ICICI over the counter and got a counterfoil of savings deposit slip with bank stamp (transfer) and my account number on it. There was no issue or rejection at that time. However even after 2 weeks the credit to ICICI savings account or any communication from icici did occur. ICICI customer service says there is no record of it and to contact branch. I will find branch details and contact them.

        I cannot really travel to Belgaum. The cheque deposited had my account number, PAA and contact numbers on back below my endorsement. ICICI also has my email address to inform me. Does such disappearance of deposits happen without any intimation to the account holder? What do you recommend I do?

        Thanks again.

I presented my cheque in my Maharashtra Bank at Chandigarh. But the bank refused the cheque stating the reason “Present in proper Zone”. Now the bank has asked me to present the Cheque at Moga, Punjab as the cheque has been issued by Post Office Moga.
    Kindly help, whether CTS 2010 cheque can be returned by the Bank stating it to be issued by the Post Office which is in Moga. Is there any way out to get this cheque encashed at Maharashtra Bank, Chandigarh.?

              Rajib-1) When you use A/C Payee option then you restrict to deposit into the account of Payee only. So this can be special as well as restrictive. I am not sure about what option you select. The drawer has the authority to cross the cheque.

        Sir my humble question is :
        Can bank do that a person fills anybody name in the cheque and take payment at his own and files a case against the person whose name is filled as payee?

        Is it required that the payee should be ascertained by the bank?

    Hello Sir, I got a income tax refund check more than Rs 50000/-. When I deposited check to my ICICI bank it got dishonored saying REJECT:Chk #: PAYEES ENDORSEMENT REQUIRED.
    Do you know what need to be done in this. Check is in my name and ICICI account is also in my name. Do I need to sign back of my that Refund check along with account number?

    Will really appreciate your help. I am outside India. My parents don’t know what to do with that check.

    Please respond

    I received a high value (3.7 lac) Order Cheque of sbi, kukatpally (hyd branch) Its an nre account and also mutli-city cheque mentioned on it. It is not crossed nor ac payee mentioned. Its mentioned my name as in the folowing way:

    Navdeep Goud (Axis Bank A/C no. 1234.. 1234.1234…1234)

    1. can i encash it at sbi home branch by producing my ID like adhar or Driving Licence? or even showing my axis bank passbook there?

    2. or is it mandatory to deposit it in my axis bank branch? And in case of deposit, when will it be credited to my axis account. I think it will be considered as a local cheque.
    i have axis bank account in kukatpally area only.

            is it possible to prepare such type of chq….

            i m working in dubai n as per united arab bank policies, all payee must show id proof at counter. so i think in united arab , banks r practising very nice method…..whts ur opinion??

    Dear Mr Banker, i received 2 (two) demand drafts (Account payee only) in my name from CITIBANK, today i decide to credit it to my account (SBI) and made a few mistakes
    1. I fill the pay in slip but i wrote a wrong dates, i wrote the date i deposit the draft instead of the issue date of the draft in the details of cheques column…. frankly i wrote the whole dates different in the pay in slip.
    2. I drop it in the SBI dropbox but i did not let the bank officials stamp the counterfoil, i just tear it out and take the counterfoil home without stamp or signature.
    If these are going to cost a problem please advice me what should i do

    My father is 85 year old. He cannot go to bank to withdraw pension. He also does not want to use ATM. He issues an uncrossed cheque (for Rs 10,000) writing pay to ‘self’. He signs cheque and also signs over back of cheque, I (Rajiv) also sign over back of cheque. I go to bank to withdraw Rs 10,000/- and give it back to my father after coming home. The lady of bank, when she gives money and makes entry in passbook through computer, she writes ‘paid to Rajiv’. I tell her to write ‘paid to self’ i.e. (my father’s name) as it is actually my father who is getting money, not me. Secondly, if she shows in records that money was paid to me (Rajiv), then it will be counted as my income and I will have to pay tax on it whereas it is actually not my income and it is being given back by me to my father (The amount is not a gift to me, so not tax free). The lady of bank does not agree with this argument. She says since she is giving it to me (Rajiv), she will write ‘paid to Rajiv’. She is right or me?

So, bank have no option but to write who collected. Also, by mere her mention in your father’s passbook will not change your income status. Bank is acting as per rule.

    I have a general question here. When people applies for a loan, the banks are asking empty checks with only signed and To field written on it, but without amount and date mentioned. So does not it mean, that we are giving a chance to the bankers to write any amount and deposit ? if they write more money on check and deposit it will be bounced. so will not be legal issue ? first of all is it not legal to ask blank checks as security deposit ?

    I called SBI to check if the Account number which i have written is valid or in Valid, they told me that the account number is invalid. while Calling Phone banking , they assk for the account number/ debit card number, when i give my actual account number it takes me inside for further options, when i type the wrong account number its telling me invalid account number.

    Since holiday i’m not able to do anything 🙁 its a huge money 🙁 can you please advice if the bank will not refer account holder name and account number and just transfer amount ?

    Cant hold my breath till monday, can you please advise where the money could have been parked and will i be able to recover my money?
    If by Mistake the money was transferred to any other account will it be possible to recover the money ?

    1. I had issued two cheques (saving a/c) of 50000/- each to Mr.A in 2010 as gaurantee because of regular credit deals of electric goods. Every deal was paid in cash with in 15-30 days in cash and the deals were without bills.
    2. Both the cheques were without payee name and without date. Even not crossed a/c payee.
    3. In 2012 Mr.A gave the cheques to his friend Mr.B and Mr.B presented the cheques in his current a/c by filling his firms name and date. Between 2010 and 2012 my as I did’t operated my a/c it became inoperative/dormant.
    4. In court, as a supporting document Mr.B presented a photocopy of fake bill with a fake signature of mine as receiving of material. Mr.A is mentioned as an evidence in case file.
    5. On last court date, Mr.B requested CJM that carbon copy of that bill had been misplaced by him and since original copy of bill is with accused pl. order him to present original copy.
    6. Mr.B is unknown to me and I never had any deal with him in past.
    Pl. guide me. This case is a mental torture to me. I am unknown of court proceedings.

      Sir, Simple. You are already contending that the bill is fake, Then how the court can ask you bring the origional. Tell the court to bring the carbon copy & send it to the forcenic department. If this do not work out do this. WHEN he has billed he should have declared it to the sales tax autorities, paid taxes. you ask them to produce the sales tax filed copies/ annexeres to prove that he had really billed at least, second ask him to show thr transporter who had moved the goods, his Lorry receipts / payment received for freight etc, which also could prov that he jad really supplied. In the absence of these , by simply tellin that he had supplied – it cannot be counted. Tell your lawer to argue on these lines.

    1. Can I deposit the above Account payee cheque in any of Branch of SBI in India?
    2. Can I deposit the above Account payee cheque in the same branch of Nepal where I have my account?
    3. If account is blocked due to non recent transaction, is it still possible to deposit the cheque now and withdraw the money after activating the account in near future in my account of SBI in Nepal?

      sir, if A& B has a joint account – if A receives a crossed cheque -Acan deposit the cheque. similerly Bcan also deposit. How ever for removing the money -what you have written to bank 2 the time of opening will matter. If you would have written EITHER OR- means any of A or B can draw the amount. Or if you would have written both – then in the cheque both A& B has to sign ,then only it will be honoured.

      Sir, you can get the amount in your bank where you hold the account . You should be know to the branceh manager, then he may partly or even fully will allow you to draw. on his authority ( but you cannot insist ) If the cheque is from GOVT , or demand draft it will be easy & they will not hesitate. If cheque is from the same brance, or if the party is knw to the manager also it may not have difficulty.
      But it all depends on the manager of your bank

Then ask your party to issuea new cheque toyou. But generally banks charge a small amount 50 to 300 rs for this. It will be charged to the person who gave you the cheqyue,in turn he may charge you.

    eg: Pay IDBI Bank Ltd,
    Can this chq. be deposited in the account of say M/s Roshan Transport

    SIR,
    FIRST OF ALL THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR MAKING THIS BLOG. I SHALL REGULARLY VISIT IT NOW.

    SIR IF I HAVING AN ACCOUNT IN UNION BANK OF INDIA ISSUE A CROSSED CHEQUE TO A PERSON FOR EXAMPLE HIS NAME BEING RAMESH WHO HAPPENS TO HAVE AN ACCOUNT IN HDFC . WILL HE GET THE CHEQUE ENCASHED? REMEMBER I HAVE NOT WRITTEN A/C PAYEE ON IT.

    I WANT TO KNOW THAT IF I HAVING A UBI CHEQUEBOOK, CAN ISSUE CHEQUES TO ANY PERSON HAVING ACCOUNT IN ANY OTHER INDIAN BANK? WILL THEY WILL BE ENCASHED BY THEM? HOW WILL THIS HAPPEN? BY CROSSING I MEAN TO UNDERSTAND THAT ONLY RAMESH WILL GET THE MONEY FROM THE CHEQUE. AM I RIGHT?

    THANKING IN ADVANCE.
    REPLY AS SOON YOU GET IT.

    Hi ,

    This is good site with lot of clarifications. I need a clarification, I got a A/c payee cheque with my wife’s name (Name printed at Pay). I wrote my name at back of the cheque by mistake instead of my wife’s name and dropped into bank collection box. That cheque got returned with message “Instrument contains extraneous matter”

    Is that the reason that cheque returned. What should I do now.

    Thanks in advance,

    Hello sir,

    I had an Axis bank account which I closed recently. I had withdrawn the remaining amount from the SB account. Now, I have got an account payee cheque from the bank for a small amount. My name is written on the cheque.

    Since I am a bit embarassed to go to the bank for such a small amount, can I drop the cheque in ATM (which has a drop-in box) and direct them to transfer the amount to my other bank account (HDFC or BOB)

      Acpayeecheque-Simpel solution, drop the Axis Bank Cheque in your HDFC Bank. They collect it from Axis. How can you say Axis to transfer the amount to HDFC or BOB? They will not do as your account already closed with them.

    Dear sir,

    I went Yesterday on 12 th march 2015 to ICICI bank kavuri hills, hyderabad of my boss account . I have dropped two cheques (account payee cheques). but today my boss has a call that the account number is only 10 digits in stood of 12 digits.

    what was the rule if the account number I entered was wrongly but the number is very similar(near) to my boss account but 2 digits were missing. does the account payee cheques will be transferred to my boss account or it will be back to us.

    The account is existing from last 15-20 years.

    I have a question please clear the doubts of mine.

          I may issue a crossed cheque a Mr. X, and it gets stolen by Mr.Y.
          Y can sign for X on the back of the cheque and deposit into his account?
          How does my bank ensure the endorsements are valid? Do they call and check?

                Vijay-Whether you are asking me mere crossed cheque or account payee? If it mere crossed then definitely it is your loss. I think something different as account payee cheque and a person who stolen a cheque depositing into account to whom you endorsed. But if the person who lost cheque complain about lost then the cheque transaction can easily be tracked. No run away.

    Very informative Basavaraj. I wasn’t aware of the difference between a Crossed Cheque and an A/c Payee Only Cheque, though I have always used the latter. Not sure if anyone really provides a Crossed Cheque given to oneself to a third party, as people always deposit even Crossed Cheques into their a/c and issue a Crossed / A/c Payee cheque to a new drawee. But, in this e-age, have known many people preferring NEFT / RTGS over physical cheques. I don’t even recollect when I used a cheque last, as NEFT & RTGS are faster and cheaper than procuring a chequebook (most Banks charge a/c holders Rs. 100+ for chequebooks), courier cost, etc. Wish RBI would give incentives to Banking customers for using Internet & Mobile Banking. Would curb black money flow, and money laundering too.
