To write a name on a document and affix a seal (stamp) to clarify the responsibility of the creator. A name can be written by hand, stamped with a rubber stamp, printed, typewritten, etc., and is usually used in the narrow sense to distinguish it from a signature. When signing and stamping a document, it is considered that there is no particular need for a relationship between the name and the stamp, and for example, it is acceptable to write one's real name and affix a seal showing a pen name. In the Commercial Code, when a signature is required, it can be replaced by a name and seal (Article 32 of the Commercial Code). In the Bills and Notes Act and the Cheques Act, a signature includes a name and seal (Article 82 of the Bills and Notes Act, Article 67 of the Cheques Act). Also, if the person who should sign and affix a seal is unable to sign, they may have someone else sign and affix a seal, and if they are unable to affix a seal, a thumbprint may be acceptable (Criminal Procedure Rules, Article 61). However, for notifications of marriage and birth (Family Registration Law, Article 29) and the creation of wills (Civil Law, Articles 968 and following), the signatures (handwritten signatures) and seals of the parties are required.
