Simple Banking Question

9 years ago
I am a United States citizen who will be moving to El Salvador to marry next month. If I give a personal check to my (El Salvadorian) bride, will her (El Salvadorian) bank hold this check for a standard period of time before the funds can be withdrawn?
For example: Here in Ecuador the banks hold out-of-country checks for a minimum of 20 days, regardless of when the funds are verified to be available in my U.S. account.
