Undated instruments are still considered valid and negotiable. If an instrument contains a date, that date is presumed to be the correct date of making, drawing, accepting, or endorsing. An instrument can be ante-dated or post-dated. Any holder of an undated instrument that is payable at a fixed period after date can insert the true date of issue or acceptance. Inserting an incorrect date does not invalidate the instrument for a holder in due course, who considers the inserted date as the true date.
