What do I do if the foreign address is too long for the check delivery information address section?

  • Under the Handling Code field, choose "Campus Mail"
  • Under the Miscellaneous Fields tag, under Miscellaneous Field 7, input the Box Number
  • Have the check sent to yourself or your department
  • Reroute the check through the USPS (US Postal Service)

Sending checks to foreign addresses is highly discouraged as they tend to take a long time to reach their destination and more often than not they are lost. Additionally, most foreign banks do not accept US checks. We recommend processing a foreign wire in lieu of a check to a foreign location.
