<b>What is a My Commission Expires Stamp?</b> <br>A Commission Expiration Date Stamp stamps the words "My Commission Expires" along with a custom day, month, and year. A notary may want this for transactions or documents where this information is relevant. Not all state stamps come with an expiration date. You also may not want to include the "My Commission Expires" text on every stamp seal. This allows a notary to choose when and where the relevant information is applied.<br> <br> <b>Benefits of a Self-inking Model?</b> <br> An automatic re-inking feature makes self-inkers great for stamping large volumes in quick succession. After each imprint, an inked pad internal to the unit recoils as it closes, hitting a customized die plate and making the stamp ready for your next impression. If you're tired of separate inking pads, self-inking stamps are a better option.
