Official Commission Mandates on Ink Contrast Compliance

Recruitment screening engines flag thousands of signatures every year due to non-compliance with ink contrast compliance.

Commissions require signatures to serve as undisputed legal verification of candidate identity during examination hall attendance and document scrutiny.

💡 Important Tips:
  • Always sign with a smooth, continuous stroke. Never trace over an existing line as double strokes trigger manual audit queries.
