This appears in an academic text about taxes in 18th century Chile.
IT is mentioned along with other types of domestic taxes:
"También se observa que a la altura de 1905 se establece el impuesto y derechos sobre alcoholes, contribución que logra un monto relativo importante conforme nos acercamos al fin del periodo.
Hacia 1910 se incorporan como entradas fiscales las fajas de impuestos y los derechos de timbres, el primero de los cuales se posiciona como una de las principales entradas de esta clasificación. El cuadro 5 destaca por último que el único impuesto que permaneció vigente a lo largo de estas décadas fue el de papel sellado y estampillas. "

From Wikipedia - A revenue stamp, tax stamp or fiscal stamp is a (usually) adhesive label used to collect taxes or fees on documents, tobacco, alcoholic drinks, drugs and medicines, playing cards, hunting licenses, firearm registration, and many other things. Typically businesses purchase the stamps from the government, and attach them to taxed items as part of putting the items on sale, or in the case of documents, as part of filling out the form.
