Drafts



What is a draft?

A draft is like a bank cheque made out in a foreign currency. It’s an easy and affordable way for you to make payments or settle a transaction overseas. Drafts can be sent overseas via the mail and are available in a wide range of currencies.

If you have no time constraints, are happy using the mail and you don’t need the funds to be paid directly in to an account, then a draft would be suitable for you.


Why choose a draft?

  • Drafts may be enclosed with letters or invoices and forwarded direct to the payee
  • If a draft is lost or stolen, the draft can usually be stopped and a new draft issued. If a draft has been presented for payment, it is not possible for it to be stopped.
  • A draft is an economical method of transferring funds to a specific company or person overseas
  • A draft provides security of payment as it is a non-negotiable instrument and can only be credited to the payee’s bank account unless the payee has endorsed the draft.
