Please ensure that at least one of the documents you present at the bank receives a stamp. The form consists of 3 pages, with 2 of them being identical. It's essential to print all three pages. The bank might retain one page, leaving you with two to present at the police station. The bank can either use a manual ink stamp or print directly onto the document; both methods are acceptable. If you make a payment via an ATM, you won't receive a stamp on your forms, but you will be provided with a receipt.
