因不承兌而不兌現
Dishonour of a bill of exchange where: it is duly presented for acceptance, and acceptance is refused or cannot be obtained; or when presentment for acceptance is excused and the bill is not accepted: Bill of Exchange (Cap 19) s 43(1). When a bill is dishonoured by non-acceptance, an immediate right of recourse against the drawer and indorsers accrues to the holder, and no presentment for payment is necessary: s 43(2). See also Bill of exchange; Dishonour; Presentment for acceptance; Presentment for payment; Qualified acceptance.
如匯票經妥為出示以求承兌，但被拒絕予以承兌或不能獲得承兌；或已獲免將匯票出示以求承兌，但該匯票仍不獲承兌，則該匯票即因不承兌而不兌現：《匯票條例》（第19章）第43(1)條。當匯票因不承兌而不兌現時，持有人即有向出票人及背書人追索的權利，而無須出示匯票以求付款：第43（2）條。另見 Bill of exchange; Dishonour; Presentment for acceptance; Presentment for payment; Qualified acceptance。 |
