Adhesivo Copia

Spanish to English Law/Patents Law (general) Colombia
This appears in a stamp on a photocopy of a birth certificate, similar to the one found at this link (top right corner):

Would Copy Sticker be accurate? Thanks in advance

adhesive stamp (to certify true copy)

Don't like "sticker" - sounds too tacky for a legal doc
Peer comment(s):

agree Jennifer Levey : Well, yes. But if it weren't tacky it wouldn't stick, would it...?

Indeed, thanks!
agree philgoddard : Yes, in a translation you would describe what appears on the document. You obviously wouldn't print these words on the stamp itself.

Safety adhesive-backed copy

> copia 1. copy 2. counterpart (of a contract), West.

Note that a counterpart must, in English legal practic/se, have an original, e.g. of a lease, so a 'contrato en cuatro ejemplares' a un solo efecto is one 'engrossed' in four identical parts, rather than (a common misunderstanding) one 'issued' (IMO impossibly) in 4 counterparts.

Otherwise, I will refrain from an 'adhesivo' joke about 'romantic' Colombian waiters and barmen / Baristas I have known in London.
Example sentence:

Col. Es importante que el ciudadano exija el adhesivo de seguridad en el registro civil, para garantizar un adecuado recaudo y seguimiento del dinero depositado.

Col. IMPRIMIR STICKERS – Adhesivos – Calcomanías – Medellín / Adhesivo de seguridad: Son los que *al despegar se rompe completamente*, no se pueden mojar porque se dañan. Vinilo Holográfico:(saftez

Peer comment(s):

neutral philgoddard : Once again, the correct answer is in your references. Adhesivo is a noun meaning sticker. Also, you appear to be confusing safety and security.

neutral AllegroTrans : This surely is an adhesive stamp, not a copy of one, affixed to certify a copy; and why "safety"?

neutral Jennifer Levey : You don't appear to have looked at Asker's sample document.
