These are specialized cheques made available to overseas travellers and converted into the currency of the country of destination. Travelers' cheques are issued in several denominations in a local or foreign currency. The issuing bank accepts the return of unused cheques at a little commission. At the time of issue, the holder signs the cheque in the presence of the manager of the issuing bank and then the cashing bank; and the two signatures must agree. Travelers' cheques can only be issued after fulfilling exchange control regulations set by the central bank of a country.
