Negotiable Instruments Act Section 104 — Protest of foreign bills

CHAPTER IX O F N O T I NG A N D P R O T E S T

General

Summary

Foreign bills of exchange must be formally protested when they are dishonoured, but only if the law of the place where the bill was created requires such a protest. This means the requirement to protest depends on the rules of the country or region where the bill was originally drawn, not on local law.

Official Text

Foreign bills of exchange must be protested for dishonour when such protest is required by the law of the place where they are drawn. 2
