The Declaration of Independence was signed by some people on July 4, 1776; but it's impossible to state an exact time, because most of the signatories were unable to travel to Philadelphia at the time, so the document traveled to them. The signatures were gradually added over the course of about one month, but July 4, 1776, was chosen as the "official" date.
