Accounts Payable is pleased to announce that Financial Services has partnered with Western Union Business Solutions to provide a new method for reliable and cost-effective international payment processing. Transaction fees associated with international wire payments can be greatly reduced, particularly when making payment in the payee’s home currency or to the United States. As well, payment formerly processed by draft can be completed in days, rather than weeks.
The Electronic Payment Request Form is available on the Financial Services website and must accompany all requests for international payments. This will help to ensure that all required banking information is captured for the payment. Attach the form to a Cheque Requisition or Purchase Order or forward it with the backup for a travel reimbursement.
For further information please contact accounts_payable@carleton.ca or visit the Accounts Payable webpage to read more about International Payments.
Please note that US dollar cheques are still available for payments made to the United States.
