Each stamp holds the company&#8217;s name and registration number. While tossing a company seal onto documents isn&#8217;t a must in Singaporean law, it&#8217;s a tradition that many businesses still keep alive.<\/p>\n<p>Normally, the company secretary acts as the custodian of the company stamp, whipping it out as needed.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>When is a Company Stamp Pulled Into Action?<\/h3>\n<p>Generally, company seals serve as clear-cut evidence of a firm&#8217;s endorsement of a document or contract. While the significance of seals has somewhat waned over the years, many businesses stick to stamping practices. Judging the worth of a seal isn\u2019t factored in legally.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some times when a company stamp could come in handy:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">To lend credibility to a document and execute it as a firm agreement rather than just a simple contract<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">On company-specific documents like share certificates<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">To maintain a statutory requirement. The Companies Act stipulates that all corporate documents should bear the company registration number, and using a stamp or letterhead is a great way to stay compliant.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>How Do You Get a Company Stamp?<\/h3>\n<p>Getting your corporate stamp is usually a breeze. Numerous service providers are more than ready to cater to Singapore-based businesspersons needing custom company stamps. Pick a design that catches your eye, fill in your company&#8217;s details, and you&#8217;re all set.<\/p>\n<p>While no hard-and-fast rules exist about what to include in the stamp, most companies usually go with their name and UEN (Unique Entity Number). If you feel it&#8217;s necessary, you could also add your registered address and contact details. Once you&#8217;ve given the supplier all the details, your stamp should be ready in a jiffy, typically just in a few days.<\/p>\n<p>The cost for a company stamp comes pocket-friendly, with prices varying based on the size and design you go for.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Do You Really Need a Company Stamp?<\/h3>\n<p>Technically, no. Even though <a title=\"Section 41A of the Companies Act\" href=\"https:\/\/sso.agc.gov.sg\/Act\/CoA1967#pr41A-\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Section 41A of the Companies Act<\/a> clearly states that using a company stamp is more of an option than a requirement.<\/p>\n<p>Yet, many Singaporean companies find it hard to part ways with the age-old stamping tradition.<\/p>\n<p>A signature from a top-tier company officer, like the CEO or Director, stands in higher regard than a company stamp these days. Nonetheless, numerous firms still fancy the stamp, seeing it as a symbol of their corporate identity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Understanding the Company Stamp A company stamp, sometimes called a company seal, is like the company&#8217;s official signature and is used to validate formal papers such as certificates, contracts, and deeds.
