    Deposit it at the bank counter (NOT the drop box) along with the pay-in slip filled out as usual -- check details, USD amount, etc.

    You will also need to submit a declaration form (the bank will have a copy) to declare the source of funds and your own details. It's an RBI-required mandate without which the bank won't accept the check.

    Once done, your check should clear in about 30-40 days.
