We recently had a discussion with a US check

Hi friends of offshorecorptalk,

Then, it is worth some troubles. Which bank are you using? I think HSBC is still able to do it for about £28

While Barclays stopped doing it last year

NatWest and Lloyds may be able to help as well.
Is this a recurring business? If yes, you may want to open a local bank account in Panama as I would expect all banks in Europe to stop cheque processing in the long run, especially foreign ones.
