Legal Status and Use of Seals and Logos

The seal of the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) authenticates the published editions of the public and private Acts of Congress issued under the authority of the Archivist of the United States. The public and private Acts of Congress are published in slip or pamphlet form and in the United States Statutes at Large. NARA's published editions are competent evidence of the public and private Acts of Congress in all the courts of law and equity and of maritime jurisdiction, and in all the tribunals and public offices of the United States, and of the several States, without any further proof or authentication. See 1 U.S.C. 106a, 112, and 113. It is prohibited to use NARA's official seal and stylized logos on any republication of this material without the express, written permission of the Archivist of the United States or the Archivist's designee. Any person who uses NARA's official seals and logos in a manner inconsistent with the provisions of 36 CFR part 1200 is subject to the penalties specified in 18 U.S.C. 506, 701, and 1017.
