Texas Notary Stamp

Description

Texas Notary Stamp Requirements

A Texas notary stamp must clearly show, when embossed, stamped, or printed on a document:

• The words “Notary Public, State of Texas” around a star of five points;
• The notary public’s name;
• The date the notary public’s commission expires; and
• The notary’s ID number. 

The seal may be a circular form not more than two inches in diameter, or a rectangular form not more than one inch in width and 2-1/2 inches in length.

The seal must have a serrated or milled edge border.

The seal must be affixed by a seal press or stamp that embosses or prints a seal that legibly reproduces the required elements of the seal under photographic methods.

Texas Notary Stamp Types

Brother stamps are in a league of their own, featuring superior quality impressions at 600 dpi and up to 50,000 impressions with proper re-inking.  Brother notary stamps use oil-based inks. In our opinion, the Brother 2260 Elite is the best notary stamp.

Trodat stamps feature a see-through base and a replaceable and refillable ink cartridge. Trodat stamps come in over a dozen different colors. Features include:

• A clear base so you can see exactly where you are stamping
• A refillable ink cartridge, allowing you to add thousands more impressions to your stamp
• A replaceable ink cartridge, allowing you to change ink color by changing cartridges
• Water-based ink, resulting in very little bleed-through
• 100% compatible with the Ideal series of stamps

PSI stamps are made from 50% recycled plastic. Above all, our PSI stamps feature laser print quality impressions at 300 dpi, and last twice as long as a traditional self-inking stamp.
