Legal Definitions - corporate seal

A corporate seal is a special stamp or design that a company uses to show that a document is official and authentic. It is like a signature for a company. The purpose of a corporate seal is to prove that the document is real and that the company agrees to what is written in it.

For example, when a company signs a contract, they might use their corporate seal to show that they agree to the terms of the contract. The seal might have the company's name or logo on it, and it is usually stamped onto the document in a special place.

In the past, corporate seals were made of wax and had a special design on them. Nowadays, they are usually just a stamp or embossed design on the paper. But they still serve the same purpose - to show that the document is official and that the company agrees to it.
