Explanation using Example

Imagine John, who resides in India, issues a cheque to Peter, but the cheque states that it is payable in the United Kingdom. Peter travels to the UK and presents the cheque at a bank there, but it is dishonoured due to insufficient funds in John's account. To address this matter, Peter must follow the legal procedures for dishonour of a cheque as per UK law, including the timelines and methods for sending a notice of dishonour to John. The Indian laws regarding cheque dishonour would not apply in this situation, as the place of payment stated on the cheque is the UK.
