: Each legal entity, according to Russian law, must have its own official seal. The law does not oblige to register it. For Moscow, since 2004, a voluntary registration of the seal has been established in the city register. Why do I need to register a seal? For the safety of the legal entity itself in the event of a change of director or forgery of the seal. If there are any judicial questions about the legality of the press, then registration provides an opportunity to restore the truth.
Necessary
A set of documents on demand, payment of a fee
Instructions
Step 1
Printing for any organization is an additional way to protect documents from forgery. If a legal entity has a seal registered in the register, then this serves as the most reliable guarantor of the security of all commercial and legal transactions. Registration in the register of seals occurs immediately in the process of making a seal. Registered printing is more expensive than regular printing and you need to pay the fee at the bank.
Step 2
For the manufacture of a register seal, the manufacturing organization requires a package of documents from the legal entity. Much depends on the type of organization and the type of ordered print. If you register an LLC seal, then the list of documents will differ from the UP seal.
Step 3
Here is a list of required documents for registering a seal:
- a copy of the charter of the organization (certified by a notary), - a copy of the certificate of state registration of the organization, - a document that confirms the election of the head, - document on the decision to make a seal, - application with a sketch of the seal.
Step 4
If the future seal contains a trademark, then another notarized copy will be required from you - a trademark registration certificate and other documents. The list of documents for registering a seal is not officially approved in the legislation, so check with the seal manufacturer for a complete list.
Step 5
The seal is produced within 3 to 6 days. During this time, a sketch of the seal is approved in the registration chamber and the seal itself is made. By the way, a seal without registration in the register of seals takes 1 day.
Step 6
Seals for external document flow of a legal entity must be registered in the register of seals without fail. This is a seal for contracts, a corner stamp in which bank details are affixed, as well as stamps and seals of branches and offices of secondary importance. These are the most important seals for your company.
