Japanese Jitsuin Generator — Free Registered Personal Seal Maker

Design a Japanese jitsuin (実印) — the registered personal seal an individual files with their city office and uses on the most important documents, with the full name arranged within a round red frame.

About this seal

The jitsuin is a person's registered seal (印鑑登録), filed with the local municipal office and certified by a seal registration certificate (印鑑証明書). It carries the strongest legal weight of any personal hanko and is required for major acts such as buying property, registering a car or signing notarized contracts. It usually shows the full name in tensho (seal script) or Mincho within a round frame, often deliberately intricate to deter forgery.

Common uses

Vehicle registration and large loans

Frequently asked questions

What makes a jitsuin different from a mitomein?

The jitsuin is registered with your city office and carries full legal weight; the mitomein is an unregistered everyday seal. Major contracts require the jitsuin plus a seal registration certificate.

What font should a jitsuin use?

Tensho (seal script) is traditional and harder to forge; Mincho is more legible. The editor offers both, plus brush styles.

Legal & usage

Seals render in your browser for design and demonstration only. A real jitsuin must be carved and registered with your municipal office — generated images cannot be registered and should only depict a name you are entitled to use.
