in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

The IRS Secretary can create or change official seals for revenue officers and other Treasury employees. Each seal can be used in place of the Treasury Department seal on most certificates. Courts must automatically recognize any seal published in the Federal Register.

The Secretary may prescribe or modify official seals for district directors of internal revenue and other officers or employees of the Treasury Department to whom any of the Secretary's functions have been, or may be, delegated. Each seal contains whatever device the Secretary selects. Each seal stays in the custody of whichever officer or employee the Secretary designates. Following regulations the Secretary approves, that person may affix the seal in place of the Treasury Department's own seal on any certificate or attestation required of them — except for material to be published in the Federal Register, which cannot use it this way. Courts must automatically recognize (take "judicial notice" of) any seal prescribed this way, as long as a copy of it has been published in the Federal Register together with the regulations prescribing the seal and how to affix it.

The Secretary is authorized to prescribe or modify seals of office for the district directors of internal revenue and other officers or employees of the Treasury Department to whom any of the functions of the Secretary of the Treasury shall have been or may be delegated. Each seal so prescribed shall contain such device as the Secretary may select. Each seal shall remain in the custody of any officer or employee whom the Secretary may designate, and, in accordance with the regulations approved by the Secretary, may be affixed in lieu of the seal of the Treasury Department to any certificate or attestation (except for material to be published in the Federal Register) that may be required of such officer or employee. Judicial notice shall be taken of any seal prescribed in accordance with this authority, a facsimile of which has been published in the Federal Register together with the regulations prescribing such seal and the affixation thereof.
