Minnesota Landscape Architect Stamp Requirements

Board approved

Your Minnesota Landscape Architect seal from pedigitalstamps.com meets every requirement on this page — the required wording and the layout set out in Minn. Stat. § 326.12, subds. 2, 3; Minn. R. 1800.4200; Minn. R. 1800.4300. Fill in your details and download it in seconds.

The Minnesota rules in full, with citations

Minn. Stat. § 326.221 does not exist, and Minnesota Rules chapter 1805 is not this Board's chapter. Both are widely cited for the Minnesota seal; the Board's chapter is 1800, and the operative parts are 1800.4300 and 1800.4200. Minn. R. 1800.4200, subp. 2 was repealed by 43 SR 89; the current rule text was published electronically August 16, 2018. The board is one body licensing seven professions, so its statute and rules interleave the landscape architect provisions with those for architects, engineers, land surveyors, geoscientists, soil scientists and certified interior designers — only the landscape architect legend and certification sentence quoted above apply here.

Landscape Architect seal

Board:: Minnesota Board of Architecture, Engineering, Land Surveying, Landscape Architecture, Geoscience and Interior Design
Rule:: Minn. Stat. § 326.12, subds. 2, 3; Minn. R. 1800.4200; Minn. R. 1800.4300
Diameter:: No diameter is prescribed. Minn. Stat. § 326.12, subd. 2 and Minn. R. 1800.4300 describe the seal only by its contents — the licensee's name and the legend "licensed landscape architect" — and Minn. R. 1800.4200, which governs the mandatory certification block, states no dimension either.
Legend:: “licensed landscape architect”

"Each licensee or certificate holder may, upon licensure or certification, obtain a seal bearing the licensee's or certificate holder's name and the legend 'licensed architect,' 'licensed professional engineer,' 'licensed land surveyor,' 'licensed landscape architect,' the appropriate licensed professional geoscientist legend as defined by the board, or 'certified interior designer.' Plans, specifications, plats, reports, and other documents prepared by a licensee or certificate holder may be stamped with the seal during the life of the license or certificate. A rubber stamp facsimile thereof may be used in lieu of the seal on tracings from which prints are to be made or on papers which would be damaged by the regular seal. It shall be unlawful for any one to stamp or seal any document with the stamp or seal after the license or certificate has expired, been revoked or suspended, unless said license or certificate shall have been renewed or reissued." (Minn. Stat. § 326.12, subd. 2)
"Each plan, drawing, specification, plat, report, or other document which under sections 326.02 to 326.15 is prepared by a licensed architect, licensed engineer, licensed land surveyor, licensed landscape architect, licensed geoscientist, or certified interior designer must bear the signature of the licensed or certified person preparing it, or the signature of the licensed or certified person under whose direct supervision it was prepared. Each signature shall be accompanied by a certification that the signer is licensed or certified under sections 326.02 to 326.15, by the person's license or certificate number, and by the date on which the signature was affixed." (Minn. Stat. § 326.12, subd. 3)
The certification language a landscape architect must use is fixed by rule: "I hereby certify that this plan, specification, or report was prepared by me or under my direct supervision and that I am a duly Licensed Landscape Architect under the laws of the state of Minnesota." followed by fields for signature, printed name, date and license number. (Minn. R. 1800.4200, subp. 4)
"The certification and signature on plans, drawings, specifications, plats, reports, and other documents that require a signature is mandatory, as provided by Minnesota Statutes, section 326.12, subdivision 3." The certification may be electronic, facsimile, or digital. (Minn. R. 1800.4200, subp. 1)
"The certification by each of the professions responsible for the preparation of bound specifications, plats, reports, or other documents must be shown on the title sheet, first sheets, or certification page." Certification for plans must appear on each sheet. Consistently, Minn. Stat. § 326.12, subd. 3 provides that the required signature and certification "must appear on all pages of plans and drawings that must be signed, but only on the first page of specifications, plats, reports, or other documents that must be signed." (Minn. R. 1800.4200, subp. 3; Minn. Stat. § 326.12, subd. 3)
"A licensee or certificate holder shall not affix a signature or certification to any plan or document not prepared under the licensee's or certificate holder's responsible charge." The licensee "shall sign and certify only work within the licensee's or certificate holder's area of licensure or certification." (Minn. R. 1800.4200, subp. 1a, items B and D)
"When a document has been certified with the signature of the design professional as specified in subparts 1 to 4, that signature becomes a permanent part of that document and must not be removed at a later date for any reason." (Minn. R. 1800.4200, subp. 5)
The seal rule confirms the seal is supplementary: a licensee "may, upon licensure or certification, also obtain a seal" bearing the licensee's name and the legend, and the stamped seal "may be used on documents in addition to the signed and dated certification required under part 1800.4200." (Minn. R. 1800.4300)
"A stamp, printed signature, or electronically created signature has the same force and effect as an actual signature if it creates an accurate depiction of the licensed or certified professional's actual signature." (Minn. Stat. § 326.12, subd. 3)
Intraoffice and preliminary work is excluded: "The provisions of this paragraph shall not apply to any plans, drawings, specifications, plats, reports, or other documents of an intraoffice or intracompany nature or that are considered to be drafts or of a preliminary, schematic, or design development nature by licensed or certified individuals who would normally be responsible for their preparation." (Minn. Stat. § 326.12, subd. 3)

Minnesota Landscape Architect Seal FAQs

Frequently asked questions about Minnesota digital landscape architect stamps and seals.

How do I obtain a digital Minnesota landscape architect seal or stamp?

Once you are licensed in Minnesota, 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 Minn. Stat. § 326.12, subds. 2, 3; Minn. R. 1800.4200; Minn. R. 1800.4300, which is the provision the Minnesota Board of Architecture, Engineering, Land Surveying, Landscape Architecture, Geoscience and Interior Design will measure the seal against.

What are the requirements for the Minnesota landscape architect stamp or seal?

Minnesota’s landscape architect seal rule is Minn. Stat. § 326.12, subds. 2, 3; Minn. R. 1800.4200; Minn. R. 1800.4300, administered by the Minnesota Board of Architecture, Engineering, Land Surveying, Landscape Architecture, Geoscience and Interior Design. The seal must carry “licensed landscape architect”, and no diameter is prescribed. Minn. Stat. § 326.12, subd. 2 and Minn. R. 1800.4300 describe the seal only by its contents — the licensee's name and the legend "licensed landscape architect" — and Minn. R. 1800.4200, which governs the mandatory certification block, states no dimension either.

A further 10 requirements, each tied to the subsection that imposes it, are itemised in the Minnesota requirements section on this page.

What size does a Minnesota landscape architect seal have to be?

Minn. Stat. § 326.12, subds. 2, 3; Minn. R. 1800.4200; Minn. R. 1800.4300 governs the Minnesota landscape architect’s seal but does not prescribe a diameter. Sizes quoted for Minnesota elsewhere generally come from stamp suppliers’ catalogues rather than from the rule. What the rule does require is that your name and license number stay clearly legible.

Is a seal alone enough in Minnesota?

No. The seal is permissive — § 326.12, subd. 2 says a licensee "may" obtain one, and Minn. R. 1800.4300 says it "may be used on documents in addition to the signed and dated certification required under part 1800.4200." What is mandatory is the certification sentence, signature, license number and date under § 326.12, subd. 3 and Minn. R. 1800.4200. (Minn. Stat. § 326.12, subd. 2; Minn. R. 1800.4300; Minn. R. 1800.4200, subp. 1)

Where must the certification appear?

On every sheet of plans and drawings, but only on the title sheet, first sheet or certification page of bound specifications, plats, reports or other documents. (Minn. R. 1800.4200, subp. 3; Minn. Stat. § 326.12, subd. 3)

Can a certification be removed or replaced later?

No. Minn. R. 1800.4200, subp. 5 makes the signature a permanent part of the document that "must not be removed at a later date for any reason." (Minn. R. 1800.4200, subp. 5)
