Bankers draft in overseas currency

fil789 · 5 November 2019 at 5:43PM

I live in the UK. I need to pay a government agency in Hong Kong in Hong Kong dollars. They have specified that they will only accept a crossed cheque or bankers draft. They have declined electronic transfer. None of the 3 major banks that I have an account with offer this. Neither do Western Union. Any ideas of how I can obtain a bankers draft or crossed cheque in Hong Kong dollars?

Many thanks

I thought the same thing when I read it: here we go again

Sorted
For future reference for anyone interested.
Lloyds do, takes a week
(HSBC, Santander, TSB do not issue bankers drafts in HKD)

Wasn't that the suggestion two months ago?
