Your Puerto Rico Professional Engineer seal from pedigitalstamps.com meets every requirement on this page — the required wording, the layout and the diameter set out in Reglamento Núm. 9274, Art. XIII (Sellos); Ley Núm. 173-1988, Art. 16 (20 L.P.R.A. § 711k). Fill in your details and download it in seconds.
Ley Núm. 173-1988 creates a single statutory board for engineers, architects, surveyors and landscape architects, but the Department of State administers two: the Junta Examinadora de Ingenieros y Agrimensores de Puerto Rico, whose Reglamento Núm. 9274 was approved and filed 27 April 2021, and the Junta Examinadora de Arquitectos y Arquitectos Paisajistas de Puerto Rico, whose Reglamento Núm. 7717 was approved 29 June 2009, filed 2 July 2009 and effective thirty days after filing. The operative text of the statute and of both regulations is Spanish. One discrepancy is worth knowing: Reglamento Núm. 7717 enumerates the elements of the architect seal and then forbids "ninguna otra información", while Ley Núm. 173-1988, Art. 16 also lists the licensed condition of the holder among the elements of the seal, and the regulation's list does not repeat it. Two citation cautions on the professional college statutes, which are cited here by section of the act rather than by L.P.R.A. title: the compiled text of Ley Núm. 319-1938 published by the Colegio de Ingenieros y Agrimensores places that act at 10 L.P.R.A. §§ 731 et seq., whereas the 1978 session laws cross-reference its § 11 as 20 L.P.R.A. § 741, and the two could not be reconciled against an official compilation; and the text of Ley Núm. 96-1978, § 10 relied on here is the version enacted 6 July 1978, whose later amendments were not verified.

The layout follows Reglamento Núm. 9274, Art. XIII (Sellos); Ley Núm. 173-1988, Art. 16 (20 L.P.R.A. § 711k), which is the provision the Junta Examinadora de Ingenieros y Agrimensores de Puerto Rico will measure the seal against.
Puerto Rico’s PE seal rule is Reglamento Núm. 9274, Art. XIII (Sellos); Ley Núm. 173-1988, Art. 16 (20 L.P.R.A. § 711k), administered by the Junta Examinadora de Ingenieros y Agrimensores de Puerto Rico. The seal must carry “Ingeniero Licenciado”, and circular, two inches in diameter. The statute prescribes no diameter and leaves the design to the Board; the two-inch figure comes from the Board's own regulation.
A further 8 requirements, each tied to the subsection that imposes it, are itemised in the Puerto Rico requirements section on this page.
Circular, two inches in diameter. The statute prescribes no diameter and leaves the design to the Board; the two-inch figure comes from the Board's own regulation. This is set by Reglamento Núm. 9274, Art. XIII(B)(1).
The inscription the rules prescribe is "Puerto Rico". "Commonwealth of Puerto Rico" is not it, and neither is "Estado Libre Asociado de Puerto Rico" — those last words belong to the official seal of the Board itself, not to the seal of a licensee. (Reglamento Núm. 9274, Art. XIII(A), (B)(1); Reglamento Núm. 7717, Art. XIII(A), (B); Ley Núm. 173-1988, Art. 16)
The seal names "la profesión que ejerce", and the titles Ley Núm. 173-1988 defines are Spanish — "Ingeniero Licenciado", "Agrimensor Licenciado", "Arquitecto", "Arquitecto Paisajista". No provision prescribes "P.E.", "P.L.S." or "Professional Engineer"; "P.E. #" and "P.S. #" appear in Reglamento Núm. 9274 only inside the notice that replaces the seal on an electronically transmitted document that does not require certification. (Ley Núm. 173-1988, Arts. 3, 16; Reglamento Núm. 9274, Art. XIII(B)(1), (7))
A sealed and signed document is still not a valid submittal. A licensed engineer or surveyor affixes a Colegio estampilla — physical or digital, or both — worth $5 where the work or service is worth no more than $999, plus $1 for each additional $1,000 or fraction, and no government department, court or other body will approve or treat as valid engineering plans, documents or certifications without it. On a construction plan or document certified before a government agency, the stamp the Colegio de Arquitectos and the Colegio de Ingenieros y Agrimensores adopt and issue jointly, at $1 per $1,000 or fraction of the value of the construction work, takes the place of that estampilla rather than adding to it. (Ley Núm. 319 de 15 de mayo de 1938, § 11, según enmendada por la Ley Núm. 147-2016; Ley Núm. 96 de 6 de julio de 1978, § 10)
A licensee of another jurisdiction working in Puerto Rico under a special temporary permit uses the seal of the home jurisdiction rather than a Puerto Rico seal, and supplies a copy of the permit with it. (Reglamento Núm. 9274, Art. XIII(B)(6))
