The Certificate of Name Stamp Registration is designed to certify that a name stamp imprint on a document was made with a registered name stamp. It is needed for important documents which concern one's legal rights such as contracts for buying and selling a car, telephone lines and so on.  When you register your name stamp with city hall, a Name Stamp Registration Card will be issued to you.
