Taiwan Company – Company Official Stamps
| Q: | What are the company’s official stamps? |
| A: |
The large stamp refers to the company’s name seal, while the small stamp refers to the seal bearing the name of the company’s representative. |
| Q: | Can a company have multiple sets of official stamps? |
| A: |
Yes. However, the competent authority recognizes only the stamp design registered at the time of the company’s incorporation application. Therefore, for any subsequent change applications, the same set of stamps used at incorporation must be used. |
| Q: | What should a company do if its official stamps are lost? |
| A: |
The company may apply to the competent authority for a seal change. |
| Q: | Are there standardized specifications for the design of a company’s stamps? |
| A: |
No. A company may design its large and small stamps freely, provided that the design is distinctive and can be used for identification purposes. |
| Q: | Can the stamp specimen keep on file with the bank differ from the one kept with competent authority? |
| A: |
Yes. However, the same principle applies as with the seal registered with the competent authority. Any application for changes with the bank must be made using the same set of stamps as those originally registered with the bank. |
