Can you endorse a check for someone else to deposit in your account?

Yes, you can endorse a check for someone else to deposit in any account, yours or his or some random person in the Middle East. Once you endorse the check, it is considered "as good as cash" unless you write "For Deposit Only" on the back as well - then it must be deposited into a bank account somewhere. If you trust the person who will be depositing the check, feel free to endorse the check and let them take it to a bank or ATM for depositing into your account - they will need your bank deposit slip or your bank card with PIN to do so.


Do you sign the back of a check if you write a check to someone else?

Have them either just endorse it (sign the back) with just their name or have them write "Pay to the Order of Name" and sign it. Either way, you now also sign it and bring it to either your bank or the bank it was drawn from to get cash for it.
