Duplicate Personal Cheques — Built-In Carbon Copy, 60% More Free

A duplicate personal cheque — also called a carbonless cheque or carbon copy cheque — is a standard personal banking cheque that includes a thin carbonless copy sheet beneath the original. When you write a cheque — filling in the payee name, date, and dollar amount — the pressure of your pen transfers those details to the copy automatically. No carbon paper is needed. No extra steps are required. The duplicate stays bound in your chequebook as a permanent record of every payment you make.

This makes duplicate personal cheques ideal for landlords tracking rent payments, self-employed individuals managing expenses, seniors wanting a paper trail, and anyone who writes personal cheques regularly. Every Print & Cheques Now duplicate personal cheque is 100% CPA 2006 compliant and accepted at all Canadian banks and credit unions.

Yes. Our duplicate personal cheques are 100% CPA 2006 compliant and process without issue at every Canadian financial institution — including RBC, TD, BMO, CIBC, Scotiabank, ATB Financial, Desjardins, National Bank, Meridian Credit Union, and all credit unions coast to coast. Compliance is assured through our CPA Self-Accredited Printer status (ID #1010) — one of only 20 accredited cheque printers in all of Canada. Every duplicate cheque we produce is printed on bank-ready security paper with a precisely formatted MICR encoding line to ensure accurate bank processing.

We back this with our Bank Acceptance Guarantee: if your bank ever raises an acceptance issue due to an error on our part, we reprint and reship your complete order at no cost — no questions asked. Call 1-866-760-2661 if you ever have a concern.

Single personal cheques have no built-in record copy. Once you write a single cheque and hand it over, you have no paper trail of that payment unless you manually record it in a separate ledger. This creates gaps in your personal financial records and makes reconciliation difficult.

Duplicate personal cheques create an automatic second copy for your records each time you write one — capturing payee, amount, date, and any memo note. This means every payment you make is automatically documented without any extra effort. Both formats are available from Print & Cheques Now in Blue, Brown, or Green. Both include 60 percent more cheques free on every order. Call 1-866-760-2661 if you're unsure which format is right for you.

Duplicate personal cheques from Print & Cheques Now are available in three colours: Blue (most popular), Brown (classic professional look), and Green (traditional style). All three colours are CPA 2006 compliant and personalized with your full name, mailing address, and your starting cheque number. Your banking details — institution number, transit number, and account number — are printed on the MICR line at the bottom of every cheque.

Available quantities: order 50 and receive 80, order 100 and receive 160, or order 200 and receive 320 — all with the 60% free bonus included. Prices start from $73 for 50 duplicate cheques (shipping included). All quantities are available with the carbonless copy. Not sure which colour or quantity to choose? Call 1-866-760-2661 and we'll help you decide in two minutes.

After you place your order and we prepare your layout, we send you a free digital proof to review and approve before we print anything. Once you approve, same-day printing is available for orders confirmed by 2 PM EST Monday through Friday. Next-day delivery is available across Canada with rush courier shipping — rush printing and expedited shipping rates apply. Standard delivery is 2–4 business days to most Canadian addresses.

By comparison, your bank typically takes 7–10 business days to deliver personal cheques and offers no rush option whatsoever. If you have an urgent deadline, call 1-866-760-2661 before ordering and we will confirm same-day availability for your specific situation and location.
