Notary Digital Seal - How it Works?

The digital notary seal is a significant symbol of the notary’s authority and the authenticity of the notarised document. It is an electronic impression of the notary’s public seal, which is typically embossed on the document with a digital notary stamp. The seal contains the notary’s name, jurisdiction of commission, and commission expiration date.

The notary seal is important for several reasons. First, it serves as a visual indication that the document has been notarised by a licensed and commissioned notary public. This can be important for preventing fraud and ensuring the validity of the document. Second, the notary seal creates a permanent record of the notarisation, which can be useful for resolving disputes or proving the authenticity of the document at a later date.

In addition to its functional importance, the notary seal also has symbolic significance. It represents the notary’s public office and the trust that society places in notaries to uphold the integrity of the notarisation process.
