The dry seal is the Philippine convention: an embossed mark rather than an inked one, kept by the corporate secretary and applied to the documents that matter. Stock certificates, board resolutions and secretary certifications carry it, and banks and agencies ask for it on corporate paperwork.

Questions

Do Philippine corporations need a corporate seal?

The Revised Corporation Code allows a corporation to adopt and use a corporate seal, and in practice almost all do. Banks, the SEC and counterparties routinely expect it on corporate documents, particularly secretary certifications.

What is a dry seal?

An embossing seal that raises the paper rather than inking it. It is the Philippine convention for corporate seals, and the reason a digital or inked version is often kept alongside it for documents that have to be scanned.

What goes on it?

The corporate name as registered with the SEC, the SEC registration number, and commonly the year and place of incorporation.

This describes common commercial practice rather than giving legal advice, and practice changes. Where a specific document matters, check the requirement with the body receiving it.
