Non-PRO (2): Julie Barber, AllegroTrans
When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

I rather get the impression your text may be North African.
Suite aux nouvelles mesures prises en matière de réorganisation des Services Extérieurs, il a paru opportun de mettre à jour et de compléter la liste relative aux CACHETS HUMIDES EN CAOUTCHOUC portant l’indicatif "CC", suivi du numéro d’ordre, affecté au service chargé des opérations de visite ou aux services d’ordonnancement suivant les cas.
Il est rappelé que l’usage de ces cachets est réservé pour authentifier les visas apposés aussi bien sur les certificats EUR 1 que sur tous les autres certificats et documents attestant l’origine marocaine des produits destinés à l’exportation.

Les membres du bureau de vote doivent s’assurer, avant l’ouverture du scrutin, de l’existence des moyens matériels ci-après énumérés :
— une urne pourvue de deux (2) serrures dissemblables,
— deux (2) isoloirs au moins,
— un (1) CACHET HUMIDE comportant la mention «a voté»,

Having done this about 3000 times in the last 6 years (except that contrary to Algeria, we just stamp the date on the voter's card), I can certify that it is a rubber stamp previously wetted with ink.

Dès lors, les Algériens désireux de solliciter un visa d’entrée en Europe on été astreints à effectuer un véritable parcours du combattant pour l’obtenir quelques mois après, quand ils ne reçoivent pas une réponse négative à leur demande, sanctionnée parfois par l’apposition d’un CACHET HUMIDE sur leur passeport indiquant le refus de visa, ce qui les empêchera de s’adresser à d’autres pays auprès desquels ils apparaissent alors comme des individus suspects bien qu’ils n’aient rien à se reprocher, et compromet par voie de conséquence toute nouvelle tentative d’obtention de visa.

wet stamp or seal

"Il faut que le mandatement soit par écrit(fax ou lettre à en-tête) portant signature et cachet humide du candidat."

yes, unless one wants to make distinction from "embossed seal" to exactly reflect the original document. Probably not always necessary, good point. thanks mistahara.

: I've never seen a dry stamp! or a wet seal ;-) I'd have thought stamp/seal would do.

wet ink seal
In the US, one can indeed say "wet ink seal." I've seen it before. But, you need to put "ink" in there (you just can't say "wet seal")
humide = wet (in ink)
I hope this helps.
