What is a corporate seal and why does your client’s newly formed business need one? A corporate seal is an official identifying mark used by a company and is imprinted into clay, wax, metal or paper. While not required by law, a corporate seal is a professional final touch to a document, placing a final emphasis of importance on the document.
