Quick Answer
A formal, notarized declaration attesting that a negotiable instrument was presented for payment or acceptance and was dishonored.

A protest formally records circumstances such as non-acceptance or non-payment of a negotiable instrument. Its need and timing depend on the instrument and any valid waiver.
