Assuming you try depositing a cashiers check from another bank into your bank account, it is unlikely to clear that same day. Even if your bank makes the funds available to you in a day or two, even that does not mean the check has necessarily cleared.

I asked this question of an employee at a major bank at which I have an account (because I want to sell some large-ticket items for substantial amounts of money to a private party). She basically said, when the cashiers check actually clears depends on the bank that issued it. Even if your bank makes the funds available to you within a couple of days due to regulations imposed on them, the check may not actually clear (due to fraud or whatever).

Your best bet is to physically visit the issuing bank, show them ID to prove who you are, and get them to cash the check immediately. They will then remove the funds from the account in question, and issue you a check from the bank directly. That new check will be essentially as good as cash.

How long does a check take to clear in the hsbc bank?

3 working days excluding Saturday/Sunday. If you pay a cheque in on monday it will clear on Thursday. If you pay in a cheque on Wednesday it will clear the following monday as the weekend does not count as a working day. There are many cheque exchange brokers, jewellers, pawnbrokers and second-hand stores that will cash your cheque on the day for a small fee (usually about 4 - 6 %). Make sure you have ID with you though.

Can i use a cashiers check from Bank of America to pay for a car?

I recently deposited a cashiers check from Bank of America into my checking account and my bank put a 12 day hold on it before I could access the funds. They explained this was necessary because (1) Bank of America will not verify availability of funds over the phone and (2) Bank of America is notoriously slow when it comes to releasing funds. If the car dealer has had recent experience with cashiers checks from Bank of America, he/she may say no. This was the only question that came close to the question I had but isn't this a bank internal problem not a customer problem. I mean should I be charged $540 because they have an inter bank situation.
