Karren Katon
Persons who want to manufacture notary public seals must first be issued a permit by the Secretary of State in order to legally produce California notary public seals regardless of the type or location of the manufacturer. Each manufacturer is assigned an identification number that must be included as an integral part of each notary public seal produced. Other notary public seal characteristics and elements are prescribed in the Procedures and Guidelines for the Issuance of Notary Public Seals (PDF) . Applicants must complete an Application to Produce or Manufacture Notary Public Seals (PDF) prior to approval.
C-TPAT importers, carriers and manufacturers who wish to qualify for expedited processing and other related benefits under the U.S./Mexico FAST initiative will be required to adhere to the following procedures, protocols and standards with regards to the use of high security seals.
Establish verifiable security systems for cargo storage and handling facilities and container yards in order to prevent the improper manipulation and transportation or handling of cargo and/or containers/trailers.
Ensure that all manifests and/or bills of lading or other documentation (including electronic data transmissions) submitted for cargo to be shipped are complete and includes all pertinent seal information.
Seal Integrity Responsibilities.
Seals are to be affixed by a responsible, designated representative of the manufacturing entity. (NOTE: A responsible, designated representative is defined as an employee who maintains a position of trust (i.e. security personnel) within the business and has received appropriate instruction and training in the proper use and application of high security seals).
