Professional Engineer seal

Board:
New York State Education Department, Office of the Professions — State Board for Engineering and Land Surveying
Diameter:
Circular, approximately 1¾ inches in diameter.
Legend:
“Licensed Professional Engineer”
  • For licenses issued after 1 July 1984 the seal is circular, with "STATE OF NEW YORK" along the top of the outer band and "LICENSED PROFESSIONAL ENGINEER" along the bottom. (NYSED Practice Guideline 3)
  • The inner circle carries your name above the Great Seal of New York and your license number below it. (NYSED Practice Guideline 3)
  • Both your name and your license number must be clearly and legibly visible on the sealed document — your signature must not obscure either. (NYSED Practice Guideline 3)
  • An embossing seal, a rubber stamp or an electronic version are all acceptable to the Department and the State Board. (NYSED Practice Guideline 3)
  • Documents filed with public officials must also carry the personal signature of the engineer named on the seal, on the original. (NY Education Law § 7209(1))
  • A sealed document must additionally bear a stamp warning that it is a violation of the article for anyone to alter an item on it unless acting under the direction of a licensed professional engineer or land surveyor. This alteration notice is separate from the seal and is easy to miss. (NY Education Law § 7209(2)(a))

FAQ

New York Engineer Seal FAQs

Frequently asked questions about New York digital engineer stamps and seals.

How do I obtain a digital New York professional engineer (PE) seal or stamp?

Once you are licensed in New York, 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 NY Education Law § 7209; seal design per NYSED Practice Guideline 3, which is the provision the New York State Education Department, Office of the Professions — State Board for Engineering and Land Surveying will measure the seal against.

What are the requirements for the New York PE stamp or seal?

New York’s PE seal rule is NY Education Law § 7209; seal design per NYSED Practice Guideline 3, administered by the New York State Education Department, Office of the Professions — State Board for Engineering and Land Surveying. The seal must carry “Licensed Professional Engineer”, and circular, approximately 1¾ inches in diameter.

A further 6 requirements, each tied to the subsection that imposes it, are itemised in the New York requirements section on this page.

What size does a New York PE seal have to be?

Circular, approximately 1¾ inches in diameter. This is set by NYSED Practice Guideline 3.

Does a New York PE seal need a separate alteration-warning stamp?

The alteration-warning stamp is a separate item from the seal, and it is the most commonly missed requirement on New York submittals. (NY Education Law § 7209(2)(a))

Can a New York engineer’s signature cross over the name or license number?

Your name and your license number both have to stay clearly and legibly visible, so the signature cannot be positioned across either. (NYSED Practice Guideline 3)

Do documents an engineer files with New York public officials need an original signature?

Documents filed with public officials need the personal signature of the engineer named on the seal, on the original. (NY Education Law § 7209(1))

I am also a registered land surveyor — is there a combined stamp?
Yes. The New York Engineer and Land Surveyor stamp carries both credentials on one seal, so a licensee who is also a registered land surveyor does not need two separate stamps.
