What to put on an accountant stamp
Banks, tax offices and auditors of other firms check these details, so copy them from your membership certificate and firm registration.
Name and designation
Indian members often write "CA" before the name; US licensees add "CPA" after it. Use only designations your institute or board has granted.
Example: CA Nisha Iyer
Membership or license number
Your ICAI membership number in India, a state CPA license number in the US, or the membership number from ICAEW, ACCA, ICAN or ICAP, for example.
Example: M. No. 123456
Firm name and descriptor
The registered firm name followed by "Chartered Accountants" or "Certified Public Accountants".
Example: Kapur & Iyer, Chartered Accountants
Firm registration number
ICAI firms quote their FRN; Philippine practices may show a BOA accreditation number. Leave it off if your firm has none.
Example: FRN 012345W
Role
Partner or Proprietor under the signature, so readers know who signed for the firm.
Example: Partner
UDIN line
Indian certificates and audit reports need a UDIN generated on the ICAI portal. A blank line lets you write it on each document.
Example: UDIN: __________________
Stamps an accounting firm uses
Practices tend to split work between a seal for signed documents and plain office stamps for everything else. Paste and adapt the sample wording.
Partner sign-off stamp
Sits under the signature on audit reports and certificates, with space for the UDIN.
Sample wording
For KAPUR & IYER
Chartered Accountants · FRN 012345W
______________________
CA Nisha Iyer, Partner · M. No. 123456
UDIN: __________________
Round firm seal
The firm name on the top arc and the city below, for letters, engagement documents and certificates.
Sample wording
KAPUR & IYER
• CHARTERED ACCOUNTANTS •
Mumbai
Workpaper review stamp
Records who prepared and reviewed a schedule in the audit file. It is an internal mark, not an opinion.
Sample wording
WORKING PAPER
Ref: ______
Prepared: ____ Reviewed: ____
Date: ___/___/____
Documents received stamp
Dates client papers for tax returns and audits, so missing items are easy to chase. Our date stamp templates make a quick start.
Financial documents are copied, scanned and archived, often for many years, so plain and legible beats decorative.
Shape
A round seal is a familiar format for CA firms; rectangles suit sign-off, received and review stamps.
Size
Round firm seals are commonly 35 to 40 mm. A sign-off stamp needs about 55 × 25 mm for the signature space; office stamps, 45 × 18 mm.
Ink color
Blue marks originals clearly; black reproduces best on scans sent to banks and tax portals.
Font
Use a plain font and keep membership and registration numbers as large as the firm name’s smaller line.
Logos
ICAI guidelines bar Indian CA firms from using their own logo or monogram on stationery and display material; members may use the CA logo only as the guidelines allow. Elsewhere, check your institute’s rules.
Where accountants use stamps
One set of files covers paper and PDF work.
Reports and certificates
Stamp beside your signature on audit reports, net worth and turnover certificates, with the UDIN where required.
Client documents
Mark incoming papers as received and outgoing copies as client or file copies.
Bookkeeping and payments
Keep approval and payment marks separate; the guide to paid and reviewed stamps shows wording that reconciles at month-end.
Pick a round seal or sign-off layout above, or start blank.
Step 2
Add your numbers

Step 3

After the free preview, save a transparent PNG for reports and an SVG or EPS for the stamp shop.
Frequently asked questions
What goes on a chartered accountant stamp in India?
Usually the firm name, "Chartered Accountants" and the FRN, plus the partner’s name, "Partner" and membership number, with a line for the UDIN.
Does the stamp replace UDIN or a digital signature?
No. UDIN is generated on the ICAI portal for each document, and many e-filings need a digital signature. The stamp just shows your details clearly.
Can a CPA in the US use a seal?
Many CPAs simply sign, while firm stamps are handy on letters and workpapers. State boards regulate how the CPA title and firm names may be used, so check yours first.
We have our firm seal only as a scan. Can you rebuild it?
Upload the scan to extract a stamp from a photo for a quick transparent copy. Recreating the text in the editor makes the seal print far more sharply.
How much does it cost?
Designing and previewing are free. Watermark-free downloads cost $2.50 for a PNG, $2.90 with SVG and EPS added, or $3.50 for every format. Firms with several partners can choose $15.90 a month, $119 a year or $299 lifetime and keep every design in My Library.
Can I order a physical seal?
Any local stamp shop can produce a self-inking or pre-inked seal from the SVG, EPS or PDF export.
Can the seal be in Arabic and English?
Yes. Right-to-left text is supported, so a Gulf firm can run its Arabic name along the top of the ring and the English version underneath. Match the spelling on your practice license.
Do lawyers and freelancers need different stamps?
Yes. Advocates show enrolment numbers; see the lawyer stamp maker. Freelance clients who need invoice stamps can use the self-employed stamp maker.
