Do i need a stamp on my ref. letter?

Guys, i have a question. I got a reference letter from my previous employer. It's on a letterhead paper (but not the one with watermarks), just printed on a color printer on a thick piece of paper. The letter has a signature of HR manager, but doesn't have a stamp of the company. The company is one of the Big 4, Russian office.

I know that in the UK they don't put stamps on ref. letters, but here it's a common practice. Another thing is that i got a reference from my current employer with stamps on every page.

What do you think? Do I need to ask for a stamp?

No, if it won't hurt do it but if it's a pain just leave it.
I did not have any stamps on mine.

The problem is that I have stamps on all the other letters. Well, it not too much of a pain, but i'm so sick and tired of all these documents already...just want to send the damn thing as soon as possible.

If in your country it is a normal to have a stamp on you reference letters, it is ok, cus different country has different format. The most important thing is the content.

Any other thoughts on that? I did ask for a stamp, but there was no reply. I guess they're too busy. Anyway, thinking of sending the goddamn application today.
