Who can certify a check?
Only the bank can certify a check, or someone at the bank. Usually, the bank will not certify a personal check, they will issue what is called a "certified check". A certified check is guaranteed to have available funds by the bank that certifies it. Certified means the funds are held aside. Anyone with a certified check made out to them can go to that bank and collect cash. In days of banking past, you could have a personal or business check certified by the bank, and they would stamp the check "certified" and hold the funds aside on that item. Now, the bank will just issue a certified check after taking the money from your account and the certified check will be drawn on the bank's account. This answer is for the U.S. banking system.

The first step in the process of how a check goes through the banking process from the time it is written to the time it is reconciled with your bank statement is that the recipient lodges the check into their bank account. The bank then has to clear the check with the bank that the check is from, known as check clearing. This process can take a few days. The recipients' account is credited with the amount that the check was written for and the account of the person who wrote the check is debited for the same amount.
