Please check ISO 9001:2015 clause 7.5.2 c).

There are no requirements about how many signatures are needed. So, it is up to your organization to decide.

As a minimum, one signature by document can evidence check and approval simultaneously. Or, your organization can decide to have two signatures by document, one for check and another for approval. Or, your organization can decide to have three signatures by document, one for writing, other for checking and another for approval.

The following material will provide you more information about document control:
