Personal Checks. The financial institution redeeming a check determines the expiration date of a personal check. The Uniform Commercial Code permits the accepting institution to decide whether it will redeem checks dated more than six months before the date you take the check to the institution.
For example most checks are good for 90 or 120 days. If I have a cashier's check and don't see an expiration date on it, does it mean I can cash it even 5 years in the future?est Answer: Technically NO checks expire unless they state ON THE FACE of the check that they expire on X date, or Y days after issued. However, banks are NOT required to honor 'stale' checks, and US banks almost universally consider checks stale after 6 months.
