Using Canara Bank Withdrawal Slips:, Rules, and Charges

How Cash Withdrawal Works with Slips in Canara Bank

In Canara Bank, a withdrawal slip works as a written order that allows customers like you to collect cash directly from their savings or current account. Different from a cheque that can be used in any branch, withdrawal slips are primarily accepted at the home branch where you opened your savings, current, or junior account.

You have to fill in the receipt with account details and submit it to the cash counter. The teller verifies your request before disbursing the banknotes.

Why is a Withdrawal form required?

• Provide proof of withdrawal for both the bank and the customer. It is mandatory for banking records, both digital and offline.
• Works as an alternative when you don’t have your cheque book and debit card handy.
• Useful for smaller amounts or for minors/junior account holders who may not have cheque facilities.
• It is especially used in villages, towns, and tier 3 cities if ATM card delays occur.

Where to Start the Process

The process starts by obtaining a withdrawal slip from the branch counter. You have to visit your base branch; there is no other option available to get an official slip.

These slips are free and available at designated stands inside the bank. You have to fill details carefully, as mistakes can delay your transaction, or rewrite another slip.
