The Public Seal is a formal symbol affixed to important documents to signify their authenticity and official status.

Kenya’s Public Seal is outlined in the Second Schedule of the Constitution under national symbols. It also appears in Part Nine of Chapter Two, which covers national symbols and national days. Other national symbols include the national flag, national anthem, and coat of arms.
