approval stamp
Mark of acceptance
An approval stamp is a mark or device indicating official acceptance or authorization.
In bureaucratic contexts, documents receive an approval stamp to show they've passed review: The permit finally got its approval stamp from the zoning board.
Figuratively, giving something your approval stamp means endorsing it: The coach put her approval stamp on the new training regimen.
