Discharge of an instrument that has been transferred, assigned or amended

Have more questions? Submit a request

When discharging an instrument that have been transferred, assigned or amended, discharge the original instrument, not the transfer, assignment, or amendment. Discharging the original instrument will remove all of the instruments affecting it. In cases where the instrument has been transferred or assigned, details of the transfer or assignment must be set out.


The discharge of an instrument that has been assigned or transferred must be signed by the assignee/transferee.
