Your seal is what turns a document you have reviewed into a document the law recognises as notarised. This course walks through what it must contain, physical and digital, how to apply it correctly, and how to tell a genuine seal from a forged one.
Six short lessons, in order:
|
1

What Your Seal Represents
The legal basis for your appointment and why the seal is treated as an authentication feature, not decoration.
|
|
2
|
The Physical Seal
Required specifications, size, and the information every valid physical seal must display.

The Digital Seal
What backs an eSeal, the security requirements around it, and how it is verified.
|
|
4
|
A Note on Placement
Where a seal belongs on a document, covered briefly here and in full in a separate course.
|
|
5
|
Recognising a Valid Seal, Spotting a Forged One
The checks that separate a genuine seal from a counterfeit, and what to do if you suspect misuse.
|
|
6
|
What the Law Requires
Section 5(2) of the Notaries Public Act, ex officio seal requirements, and keeping your records current with the Chief Registrar.
|
|
This course is self paced, and built as a reference you can return to whenever you need to double check what a compliant seal should look like.
