A few years ago, I didn't quite know what is the difference between common seal and rubber stamp. To me, both were the same. I just knew both are used to approve a document and make it legally true. But the list of difference between seal and stamp is huge. I would be glad to share a few with you all for your better understanding.
What is the difference between notary seal and stamp?
The differences between a notary seal and notary stamp are:
| Aspect | Notary Seal | Notary Stamp |
Design |
A device with the notary's information engraved on it, creates a raised impression without using ink. |
A rubber or polymer stamp with the notary's essential information, used to leave a clear, inked impression on the document. |
Format |
Leaves a raised impression on the paper. |
Leaves an inked impression on the paper |
Usage |
Provides an additional layer of security to notarized documents. Often used for important or sensitive documents. |
Used for day-to-day notarization, providing quick and efficient notarial markings. |
Portability |
Often bulkier and less portable due to its design. Typically used in the notary's office or other fixed locations. |
Portable and easily carried by notaries to various locations where they perform notarial duties. |
Ink Required |
Does not require ink, as it creates an impression through pressure and embossing. |
Requires ink to create the impression on the document. |
So this is the difference between stamp and seal. There might be more but as of now these are all I can think of.
