Special Adhesive Stamps
State-specific adhesive stamp procurement for legal and commercial transactions.
What it is
Understanding Special Adhesive Stamps
Some instruments require special adhesive stamps rather than stamp paper or franking, and which ones do is decided state by state. Getting it wrong is not a paperwork problem. An incorrectly stamped instrument can be challenged, and rectifying it after execution is slower and more expensive than getting it right first time.
We identify what the state requires for your instrument, procure the correct stamps, and supply them against your documentation schedule.
