Sorry about the incomplte answer. I meant that the stamps are a sort of taxes or fees that people pay for appllying for documents such as birth certificates or when \' authentciting\' copies of original documents in a local governmemnt service

also the origin af the word is the french word for stamps, which is \'les timbres\'
It is therefore an \'Arabised\' French word a la Marocaine

So the meaning of the sentece would be the holder of the mentioned document is exempt from paying the stamps fees.
