Common Seal

A common seal is an official stamp used by certain organizations, like companies and government agencies, to authenticate important documents. It acts as a formal signature, symbolizing the organization's approval and making the document legally binding. When an organization’s document is sealed with the common seal, it indicates that the organization formally endorses it. This process is a way to ensure the document is genuine and has been authorized by the organization’s governing body. Generally, the use of a common seal is governed by specific rules and often requires proper records for legal validity.
