How to make Notary stamp
- Open the stamp maker and pick the Notary template, or type your own wording.
- Size it, colour it, pick a border, and put the logo, date or serial exactly where you want them.
- Export the image for documents, or the whole set if you also need it in print or in Word.
How to put a notary stamp on a PDF
In Word, insert the notary stamp as a picture and then change the wrap to In Front of Text. That one setting is the whole problem: left as it is, Word treats the image as a very large character and pushes your paragraphs down the page. Once the wrap is changed it can be dragged anywhere, including over a signature line.
What size should a notary stamp be?
The common standards are 40 mm across for a round notary stamp, 45 by 30 mm for an oval one and 60 by 20 mm for a rectangle. Those are the sizes most banks and registries are used to seeing, which is the practical reason to stay near them rather than any rule.
What a notary stamp does not prove
This produces an image. It is not an electronic signature in the legal sense: that is a cryptographic thing tied to verified identity, and it comes from an e-signature service. A notary stamp shows intent and identity to a human reader, which is what routine paperwork actually runs on, and it is worth knowing which of the two a document needs.
Frequently asked questions
Is the notary stamp free?
Designing is free and unlimited. Downloading the notary stamp is $1.50 for a single image, or $3.00 for every format at once. One payment either way, with no subscription attached.
Can I add a date to the notary stamp?
Yes, and you can add a time beside it. On a notary stamp the date can either be one you type, which stays fixed, or left blank so it resolves at the moment of each download.
What format do I get?
You choose an image format for $1.50, or take everything zipped for $3.00. The pack is where the SVG and the PDF live, and where the Word version of the notary stamp keeps its date as real text.
Do I get a template or something I can edit?
You build it. The notary stamp sample layouts are starting points rather than the product, so this is closer to a notary stamp generator than a notary stamp template. Adjust the notary stamp design, build the notary stamp online, preview at real size, then pay once. As a notary stamp maker it charges nothing to try, and the notary stamp price is $1.50 for a transparent notary stamp png or $3.00 for the whole pack.
Can I use this notary stamp anywhere?
It uses generic placeholders (STATE/PROVINCE, COMM #, expiry) so you can tailor it to your jurisdiction. Confirm your local notary stamp requirements before official use.

Estamplab is a design tool. What a notarial or legal mark must carry is set by the authority that issued the commission or the appointment, and it differs sharply between jurisdictions, so check your own paperwork before relying on any layout here. This page describes common practice rather than giving legal advice. Only produce a mark you hold the authority to use: a stamp in the name of an office you do not hold is forgery.
