FAQ

Rhode Island Engineer Seal FAQs

Frequently asked questions about Rhode Island digital engineer stamps and seals.

How do I obtain a digital Rhode Island professional engineer (PE) seal or stamp?

Once you are licensed in Rhode Island, 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 430-RICR-00-00-1 § 1.3.1(E) (Stamps/Seals); R.I. Gen. Laws § 5-8-14, which is the provision the Rhode Island State Board of Registration for Professional Engineers will measure the seal against.

What are the requirements for the Rhode Island PE stamp or seal?

Rhode Island’s PE seal rule is 430-RICR-00-00-1 § 1.3.1(E) (Stamps/Seals); R.I. Gen. Laws § 5-8-14, administered by the Rhode Island State Board of Registration for Professional Engineers. The seal must carry “Registered Professional Engineer”, and the rule states no diameter. The stamp is "of the design indicated by the Department", and the Department publishes no dimensioned specification.

A further 5 requirements, each tied to the subsection that imposes it, are itemised in the Rhode Island requirements section on this page.

What size does a Rhode Island PE seal have to be?

430-RICR-00-00-1 § 1.3.1(E) (Stamps/Seals); R.I. Gen. Laws § 5-8-14 governs the Rhode Island professional engineer (PE)’s seal but does not prescribe a diameter. Sizes quoted for Rhode Island 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.

Does a Rhode Island engineer stamp read "Professional Engineer"?

The legend is "Registered Professional Engineer". "Professional Engineer" alone is not the wording the rule or the statute prescribes. (430-RICR-00-00-1 § 1.3.1(E)(1); R.I. Gen. Laws § 5-8-14)

Does a Rhode Island engineer stamp have to show your discipline?

The assigned engineering discipline is a required line on the stamp, set under the legend, for every registration issued since 14 March 1995. A stamp without it is short an element. (430-RICR-00-00-1 § 1.3.1(D)(1))

Does a Rhode Island seal have to say "State of Rhode Island"?

"State of Rhode Island" is not a required element of the engineer's stamp, and the architect's seal carries the State emblem rather than those words. (430-RICR-00-00-1 § 1.3.1(E)(1); 415-RICR-00-00-1 § 1.7(A)(1))
