About this statute

This section says the law covers seals, stamps, and similar optical markings used to confirm the correctness of documents made by top state bodies, state authorities, and the Bank of Finland. The provision defines “sigill” and “stämpel.” Certain state bodies and Finland’s Bank must use the coat of arms emblem on their seals and stamps; Parliament and related offices must use their own established emblems; other state authorities may use other approved emblems instead. Several public bodies must establish their own seals and stamps, and certain bodies must issue detailed rules for them. If the seal or stamp includes an image or other marks beyond the authority’s name or abbreviation, the National Archives’ opinion must be requested first. Sigill, stämplar och särskilda redskap som tas ur bruk ska förstöras.
