How can I get my stock certificates reissued?

To have your stock certificates reissued, you should first understand the process that American Stock Transfer typically follows for reissuance. Generally, you will need to provide certain documents, such as a completed stock power form, which grants permission for the reissuance. Additionally, if the original certificates were lost, stolen, or destroyed, you may need to obtain a surety bond, which serves as insurance against potential claims on the original certificates. It is also important to verify your identity and the legitimacy of your request, so you may be required to submit a form of identification along with any other necessary information regarding your account. Once all the documentation is prepared, you would typically send it to American Stock Transfer for processing. The timeline for reissuance can vary, so it is advisable to inquire about expected turnaround times.
