A cheque is an important financial tool that reduces the usage of physical cash often. Every bank account holder is provided with a chequebook at the time of account opening. Earlier the number of cheques in a cheque book issued by banks was 25 but later the Central bank of UAE<\/a> reduced it to 10. These limited cheques rules are not applicable for all customers. Customers with a good track record from the credit bureau are eligible to get 25 leaves in a chequebook.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And company accounts can get more cheques in the book which depends upon the bank.
