Legal Representative Seal

Legal Representative Seal refers to the personal seal of the legal representative of an enterprise, typically engraved with the legal representative's name, used to represent the enterprise in legal acts. In foreign trade, it is commonly used in contract signing, customs declaration documents, bank foreign exchange settlement, certificate of origin applications, etc. It has the same legal effect as the Company Seal but is more specific in scope. Usage scenarios include: signing and sealing export contracts, foreign exchange verification, tax registration, customs filing, etc. Notes: It must be used together with the legal representative's signature or authorization letter; recognition varies by country, some require notarization or legalization; if the legal representative changes, the seal must be updated promptly and partners notified. Difference from Company Seal: Company Seal represents the company's overall will, while Legal Representative Seal represents the legal representative's personal will, but both can legally bind the company. Difference from Signature Seal: Signature Seal can replicate a signature, while Legal Representative Seal usually requires filing. Foreign trade practitioners should ensure the authenticity and authorization validity of the Legal Representative Seal to avoid legal risks.
