印章 1. An impression or mark attached to a document. 2. An implement used to impress such a mark. 3. To impress such a mark as an authorisation or agreement. Corporations - To impress the mark of the company on a legal document as authorisation or agreement; the common seal of the company (Companies Ordinance (Cap 32) sch 1 table A art 1). The affixing of the company seal on a document has an effect similar to the signature of a natural person: s 32. The Companies Ordinance provides for two types of company seals: common seal and official seal. The common seal of every limited company shall be a metallic seal on which it shall have the name of the company engraved in legible characters: s 93(1)(b). An official seal is kept for use outside Hong Kong, where the common seal is kept, and is an exact copy of the common seal: s 35(1). An official seal with the additional word ‘securities’ or the equivalent expression in Chinese characters, or both such word and Chinese characters, engraved on it can be used to seal securities issued by the company: s 73A(1). The seal must be used when issuing certain corporate documents: ss 71 (share certificates), 73 (issue of share warrants). The corporate seal may also have evidentiary significance: Northside Developments Pty Ltd v Registrar-General (1990) 170 CLR 146. See also Company seal. Deeds - A mark or symbol attached to a document to indicate authenticity or as a formal requirement. Originally a seal was a daub of wax into which an impression was made. In modern times, the wax seal has been replaced by a paper seal which adheres to the document being sealed. In relation to deeds, a document is presumed to have been sealed by an individual if the document signed by him, describes itself as a deed; or states that it has been sealed; or bears any mark, impression or addition intended to be or to represent a seal or the position of a seal: Conveyancing and Property Ordinance (Cap 219) s 20. See also Deed; Deed under seal; Sealing. 1. 附於文件的印記或標誌。 2. 用以壓印出標誌的器具。 3. 蓋上出印記以作授權或協議之用。 法團 - 蓋上公司的印記作授權或協議之用;法團印章:《公司條例》(第32章)附表1A表第1條。每一間有限公司的法團印章須為一個金屬印章,其上須刻有可閱字樣的公司名稱:第93(1)(b)條。《公司條例》規定兩種法團印章:法團印章及正式印章。正式印章乃法團印章的複製品,並供外地使用,而法團印章則為供香港使用:第35(1)條。正式印章刻有附加“securities” 一字或相等於此字的中文,或刻有附加中、英文兩種字及詞的正式印章,可用以在該公司所發行的證券上蓋印:第73A(1)條。公司發行的某些文件必須使用該印章:第71條(股票)及第73條(認股權證)。公司印章亦可作證據之用:Northside Developments Pty Ltd v Registrar-General (1990) 170 CLR 146。另見 Company seal。 契據 - 依附於文件以顯示其真確性或作為正式規定的標記或符號。蓋章原本是在膏狀塗料或蠟上作出的印記。以蠟蓋章現時已由加附於正被蓋章文件的紙張蓋章代替。就契據而言,如文件由個別人士簽署,自稱為一份文據;或聲稱有關的文件已蓋章;或附有任何意圖作為或代表蓋章或蓋章位置的標記,印記或附加物,則文件會被當作已蓋章:《物業轉易及財產條例》(第219章)第20條。另見 Deed; Deed under seal; Sealing。n. |
