Your New Jersey Professional Engineer seal from pedigitalstamps.com meets every requirement on this page — the required wording, the layout and the diameter set out in N.J.A.C. 13:40-8.1 (Signing and sealing of documents); N.J.A.C. 13:40-8.1A (Digital signatures and seals); N.J.S.A. 45:8-36. Fill in your details and download it in seconds.
N.J.A.C. 13:40-8.1(a) states no diameter itself; it requires that the design of the seal "shall be authorized by the Board." The Board supplies that design in a document it still hosts, "Guidelines on Seals and Title Blocks," which gives the authorized design as "ROUND: 1½" DIAMETER," "METAL-TYPE, EMBOSSING," and prints an illustration captioned "1 1/2 INCHES" showing STATE OF NEW JERSEY in the outer ring. That sheet is undated, is no longer linked from the Board's own applications or regulations pages, cites the title block rules by their pre-2006 numbers (13:40-1.1 through 1.3, recodified in 2006 as 13:40-8.2 and 8.3), and its "metal-type, embossing" specification predates the November 16, 2015 amendment that first allowed a digital seal. It is nonetheless the only published statement of the design the Board authorizes, so the diameter here comes from it and the caveat comes with it. New Jersey publishes no free official text of the Administrative Code: the Office of Administrative Law directs the public to LexisNexis, and both boards' regulations pages link instead to "the Justia unofficial code (that may not be current)," so the rule text here is taken from the boards' own adopted rules as published in the New Jersey Register. Both chapters are in force: N.J.A.C. 13:40 was readopted effective February 24, 2025 (57 N.J.R. 716(a)). The engineers' and surveyors' digital seal rule was loosened effective January 6, 2020 (52 N.J.R. 46(a)): former N.J.A.C. 13:40-8.1A(a)1iv was deleted, taking with it the requirement that a digitally sealed document be available in read-only format when transmitted, and the tamper condition became new (a)2, which asks only that modification after sealing be evident.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions about New Jersey digital engineer stamps and seals.
Once you are licensed in New Jersey, 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 N.J.A.C. 13:40-8.1 (Signing and sealing of documents); N.J.A.C. 13:40-8.1A (Digital signatures and seals); N.J.S.A. 45:8-36, which is the provision the State Board of Professional Engineers and Land Surveyors will measure the seal against.
New Jersey’s PE seal rule is N.J.A.C. 13:40-8.1 (Signing and sealing of documents); N.J.A.C. 13:40-8.1A (Digital signatures and seals); N.J.S.A. 45:8-36, administered by the State Board of Professional Engineers and Land Surveyors. The seal must carry any one of “Licensed Professional Engineer”, “Licensed Professional Engineer and Land Surveyor”, and the rule sets no diameter of its own; it requires that the design of the seal be authorized by the Board. The Board's published Guidelines on Seals and Title Blocks state that the authorized design of a seal is round, 1½ inches in diameter, and metal-type embossing, and its illustration of that design is dimensioned 1½ inches.
A further 9 requirements, each tied to the subsection that imposes it, are itemised in the New Jersey requirements section on this page.
The rule sets no diameter of its own; it requires that the design of the seal be authorized by the Board. The Board's published Guidelines on Seals and Title Blocks state that the authorized design of a seal is round, 1½ inches in diameter, and metal-type embossing, and its illustration of that design is dimensioned 1½ inches. This is set by N.J.A.C. 13:40-8.1(a); State Board of Professional Engineers and Land Surveyors, Guidelines on Seals and Title Blocks.
Reading only the code produces the wrong seal twice over. N.J.A.C. 13:40-8.1(a) names no diameter and lists only three contents, but the design it defers to the Board is published as round and 1½ inches, and the Board's illustration of that design carries STATE OF NEW JERSEY in the outer ring alongside the name, the number and the legend. (N.J.A.C. 13:40-8.1(a); State Board of Professional Engineers and Land Surveyors, Guidelines on Seals and Title Blocks)
The license number on an engineer's or surveyor's seal carries a letter prefix. The Board's illustration of the authorized design is annotated "Use GE, GS or GB as part of your license number" — GE for the professional engineer, GS for the land surveyor, GB for a licensee holding both. (State Board of Professional Engineers and Land Surveyors, Guidelines on Seals and Title Blocks; N.J.A.C. 13:40-8.1(a))
A digital seal does not replace the embosser on paper. Rubber stamp facsimiles are barred outright, a surveyor's print copies of a plat shall bear the signature and impression seal, and the Department of Community Affairs tells construction officials that paper submissions must have a pressure seal while electronic submissions must have a digital seal. (N.J.A.C. 13:40-8.1(a); N.J.A.C. 13:40-5.1(i); NJ DCA, Division of Codes and Standards, memoranda to Construction Officials, February 24, 2016 and May 22, 2017)
