From the proper size and appearance to the specific guidelines that must be followed, it is important to understand all of them to ensure you use your Massachusetts land surveyor stamp properly. Here you will find out more about how your stamp should look and how it should be used in a professional capacity.
Massachusetts Land Surveyor Seal Requirements
The Massachusetts land surveyor stamp must be 1-½” for the outside diameter. While the seal is similar to other states in the overall appearance, the main difference is the requirement that it must have a serrated edge rather than a flat or smooth one. Inside the serrated edge, the Massachusetts land surveyor stamp should have two circles – a larger one and a smaller one. The space between the circles at the top of the stamp should contain the words “Commonwealth of Massachusetts” and the bottom space should include “Professional Land Surveyor”. Centered within the smaller circle are the surveyor’s name on one line and the letters “No.” followed by the license number on the second line. Along the bottom arc of the smaller circle, the Massachusetts land surveyor stamp should include the word “Registered”.
Proper Use of Professional Land Surveyors
It is vitally important that land surveyors understand the proper use of their Massachusetts land surveyor stamp. The most important consideration is the fact that any time you use your seal on official documents, you are assuming complete responsibility for the information it contains. For this reason, you are only permitted to affix your Massachusetts land surveyor stamp to reports, plats, surveys, specifications, and other documents that you prepare. You can also use your seal on documents that are created by regular employees that are directly under your supervision.
Whenever you add your stamp, signature, and date to a document, you should verify that all of the information is correct and meets all applicable codes and requirements. This will help protect you from penalties, which can include significant fines, suspension, or revocation of your land surveyor license.
Could I be penalized for improper use of my land surveying seal?
You can also be penalized if you use a Massachusetts land surveyor stamp on any document that you do not create, or take part in creating. This is viewed as attempting to hide the identity of the actual person creating the documents and reports, which is considered unlawful.
As you can see, there are specific guidelines that must be followed when using a Massachusetts land surveyor stamp. Making sure you understand these requirements will ensure that you remain in compliance throughout your surveying career.

Massachusetts Land Surveyor Stamp Options
Land Surveyors have a variety of options to choose from. You will want to make sure you have your license number and your name just as it is shown on your registered professional land surveyor form you have from the board. Below is a little more information about the differences between regular rubber stamps, self-inking stamps, and pre-inked professional seals.
Rubber Stamp
Our Massachusetts Land Surveyor rubber stamps are the most economical way to purchase a hand stamper. The regular wooden handle stamps need to be used with a separate ink pad. You can easily switch out the stamp pads to create different color combinations. The Massachusetts Land Surveyor stamp is a good choice when you need to use industrial inks for stamping on mylar. Mylar is a difficult surface to stamp on, but with the right supplies, it can be done easily and professionally. Massachusetts Land Surveyor stamps are the perfect tool for the job.
