Abstract: A label or seal consists of a transparent base foil having an adhesive layer on one side. An intermediate layer or film is applied to the side having the adhesive layer, adhesion between the base foil and the intermediate layer being decreased in some regions. A cover foil is provided which, with its adhesive layer, is laminated onto the other side of the base foil. The cover foil is irreversibly stretchable under tension and/or easily breakable. Further, a safety rim is formed by a portion of the cover foil which extends past the periphery of the base foil.
