Professional landscape architects operating in Florida will often need to add information to documents, such as their names, license number, and state. There are two forms of tools that can add these impressions: embossing seals and stamps. However, not all states allow the use of both. Each can be used on drawings, specifications, and plans to verify their contents. Every state has its own set of requirements pertaining to appropriate seals. For example, the seal often must be a specific size and include certain wording.
Therefore, before purchasing a seal, you need to be sure that it meets all the state requirements, or else it cannot be used. We’ll be looking into all the Florida landscape architect seal requirements so you can be sure your tools are appropriate. We’ll look at how the seal should appear, whether specific wording should be used, and other factors that go into a seal that can be used in your field of work. In addition, we’ll consider products made to meet the requirements so you can easily make an order.
Florida Landscape Architect Seal Requirements
As with other states, the seal required by Florida has a circular design. It needs to be exactly two inches in diameter. These seals must include two phrases, including “Registered Landscape Architect” and “State of Florida.” The name added to the seal must be the same as it appears on the registrant’s license. It also must include a prefix of “LA” before your certificate number.
When choosing a seal for use as a landscape architect in Florida, the following are the four most important things to be aware of:
- An embossing seal or a stamp may be used in the state.
- Each seal or stamp must be exactly two inches in diameter.
- The license number must include the prefix “LA.”
- All seals require the use of the word “Registered.”
Each registered architect will be provided one or more seals while holding a certification of registration. All plans, reports, and specifications made by the architect and filed as public records must be signed, dated, and stamped or sealed electronically with the seal. The presence of the signature, date, and seal provides evidence of authenticity to documents. The final reports or plans can be transmitted electronically. Signing and sealing plans when your registration is revoked expired, or suspended is illegal.
