What are the Arizona architect seal requirements and what do they mean for you as an architect in the state of Arizona?
Arizona law requires that every Arizona architect use a seal on all drawings, specifications, and other contract documents that the architect prepares in whole or in part. The Arizona Architect Seal must be 1-1/2" in diameter, and it must include the following information: The Arizona Board of Technical Registration Certificate Number assigned to the licensee, the words "Registered Architect", and the date that the document was signed. The date of expiration may also be included under the seal, but this is optional. Every Arizona architect is responsible for ensuring that their documents comply with these requirements.
There are a few different types of Arizona Architect Stamps available on the market, and it is important to choose one that meets your needs. Some stamps are self-inking, which means that you do not need to use a separate ink pad. These stamps typically have a longer lifespan than traditional rubber stamps. These stamps typically have a shorter lifespan but may be a better option for those who do not want to deal with the hassle of re-inking their stamp.
When it comes to purchasing your Arizona Architect Stamp, there are a few different options available.

Arizona Architect Stamp and Seal
Self Inking Stamp
The Arizona Architect Self-Inking Stamp is perfect for repetitive stamping thanks to its press-in-print design. You'll get up to 5,000 clear impressions before needing to re-ink the stamp, and the internal ink pad is replaceable for long-lasting use. These Self Inking Stamps also feature a soft grip for comfortable printing and smooth action printing. Arizona architects can trust this high-quality stamp for all their professional needs. While available in 11 ink colors black ink tends to be the most popular ink color choice.
Pre Inked Stamps
A Pre Inked Arizona Architect Stamp is another option that may be used to seal and sign documents. They are available in Maxlight, Slim, or Xstamper brands. This type of Arizona architect stamp leaves a crisp rich impression and does not use an ink pad.

Embossers are meant to leave a raised impression on the page, while Arizona will not accept this as the official seal they are a good tool to use in conjunction with the stamp when you seal and sign your documents for the extra layer of security. These professional seals come in a variety of models everything from the basic handheld seal to an extended long reach.
