FAQ

Alabama Architect Seal FAQs

Frequently asked questions about Alabama digital architect stamps and seals.

How do I obtain a digital Alabama architect seal or stamp?

Once you are licensed in Alabama, you can generate your seal here and download it immediately. Fill in the form and position your signature if you want one. The layout follows Ala. Admin. Code r. 100-X-5-.03 (The Architect's Seal), which is the provision the Alabama State Board for Registration of Architects will measure the seal against.

What are the requirements for the Alabama architect stamp or seal?

Alabama’s architect stamp rule is Ala. Admin. Code r. 100-X-5-.03 (The Architect's Seal), administered by the Alabama State Board for Registration of Architects, a different body from the engineering board. The seal must carry “Registered Architect”, and circular, two inches in diameter.

A further 3 requirements, each tied to the subsection that imposes it, are itemised in the Alabama requirements section on this page.

What size does an Alabama architect stamp have to be?

Circular, two inches in diameter. This is set by 100-X-5-.03.

Which Alabama board writes the architect seal rule?

Not the engineering board. The architect's seal is fixed by Ala. Admin. Code r. 100-X-5-.03, a rule of the Alabama State Board for Registration of Architects made under Code of Ala. 1975, § 34-2-35. Chapter 330-X-11, the seal chapter every Alabama write-up quotes, belongs to the engineering and land surveying board and says nothing about architects. (Ala. Admin. Code r. 100-X-5-.03; Code of Ala. 1975, § 34-2-35)

Is an Alabama architect's seal exactly two inches?

Yes, and there is no range. The rule states one diameter — "The seal shall be circular, two inches in diameter" — so the 1-5/8-to-2-inch band published for Alabama engineers and land surveyors under a different board's rule is not an architect's allowance and does not authorize a smaller architect's seal. (Ala. Admin. Code r. 100-X-5-.03; contrast Ala. Admin. Code r. 330-X-11-.02(2))

Does an Alabama architect's seal say "Licensed Architect"?

No. The outer circle reads "STATE OF ALABAMA" at the top and "REGISTERED ARCHITECT" at the bottom, with the architect's name and registration number inside the inner circle. Alabama registers architects rather than licensing them, so the seal keeps the older "REGISTERED" wording even though the state's engineers and land surveyors are "licensed" by statute. (Ala. Admin. Code r. 100-X-5-.03; contrast Ala. Code § 34-11-7(c))

Can an Alabama architect use a computer-generated seal?

The rule allows a rubber stamp, an impression seal, or a computer-generated seal, but it closes that list with the qualifier "if allowed by the Authority Having Jurisdiction." The Board does not settle the question on its own: whether an electronically produced seal is acceptable turns on the authority receiving the documents. (Ala. Admin. Code r. 100-X-5-.03)

What happens to the first seal when an Alabama architect takes over a job?

It comes off. Where a successor architect takes over a project, the successor holds control of and responsibility for the work product and all references to the original architect — title block, seal, signatures and the rest — must be removed from the documents. Adding a second seal beside the first is not the prescribed route. (Ala. Admin. Code r. 100-X-5-.05)
