Notes to answerer
Asker: "Fee" and "tax" are two different things. Yes, "derecho" can mean either, but what would be the reason they would be a part of the signature line?

neutral  Margaret M Mahoney: I don't understand where people are getting "tax" for derecho. Do you have some source for your answer? I'm curious, have never heard derecho mean other than right, straight or law.

duty


Explanation:
Stamp duty is a tax that is levied on documents. Historically, this included the majority of legal documents such as cheques, receipts, military commissions, marriage licences and land transactions. A physical stamp (a revenue stamp) had to be attached to or impressed upon the document to denote that stamp duty had been paid before the document was legally effective. More modern versions of the tax no longer require an actual stamp.
