Making a payment in

In order to make a foreign currency lodgment, you will have to submit a Form 100 (Request for Lodgment). This will have to be submitted along with a copy of an Order, Claim & Particulars of Claim or Writ with an official court stamp.

You can make foreign currency payments into court by electronic transfer, or in certain circumstances by banker's draft (made payable to the 'Accountant General of the Supreme Court'). Transfer details are provided once the above documents have been provided.

Electronic transfers take between 4-5 days to clear into court. Banker's drafts take between 6-8 weeks to clear into court.

Once the Form 100 has been completed, it needs to be presented with a copy of the Order, Claim & Particulars of Claim or Writ with official court stamp and the payment to:

                                                 Court Funds Office
                                                 22 Kingsway
                                                 London
                                                 WC2B 6LE

If you require the payment to be made into court by electronic transfer, once the documentation has been received and approved you will be provided with the transfer details. The Court Funds Office must be informed once the transfer has been requested.

Alternatively you can make foreign currency lodgments at the counter of the Court Funds Office.
