Electronic Seal
An electronic seal is the electronic equivalent of a company stamp — it guarantees the origin and integrity of a document issued by an organisation, not a natural person.
Full Definition
Under eIDAS, electronic seals are bound to legal entities (companies, institutions), while electronic signatures are bound to natural persons. A seal is typically used on invoices, confirmations or other documents issued automatically by an organisation where there is no individual signer.
