Summary/Abstract: The article analyzes the appearance, symbolism and use of the seals in Serbia during the 19th century. In its focus are the heraldic markings and inscriptions on the seals as a form of specific visual identification through which the development of statehood and building of the Serbian state and its institutions are reflected. The use of personal seals and the gradual shaping and changes on the seals of the first state institutions were considered. The formation and development of institutions were represented through the unification of the form and legal regulations regarding the appearance and right of use of the seals
