If you meet the requirements for earning a New Mexico land surveyor stamp and you've had your license number issued, you will want to purchase a professional stamp or seal that will be made to meet the standards of the board. However, it’s a good idea to know those requirements and which seal type will be the best fit for you, along with how you’re supposed to use it. Let’s start there.

Using Your New Mexico Land Surveyor Stamp

Unlike many other states, you have some options when it comes to applying for your New Mexico land surveyor stamp. You can do so with a professional surveyors rubber type stamp, as an embossing seal (an impression type seal), or via an electronically-generated image (computer-generated seals). If you choose a computer-generated facsimile, it has to be a bona fide copy of the approved version. Do not attempt to modify it at all. The version you choose will affect how you apply it.

New Mexico Land Surveyor Seal Requirements

No matter how you apply your New Mexico land surveyor stamp, it’s going to need to look a specific way. First, the professional surveyor stamp should have an outer ring diameter of 1-1/2". There are then two concentric circles inside the stamp. The first one needs to be 1” with the one inside of that being 1/2" (one-half inch) in diameter.

Between the middle ring and the perimeter, at the bottom, your New Mexico land surveyor stamp should read according to the current surveying practice act, “Professional Surveyor.” Across the top will be your full name.

Then, between the innermost ring and the middle one, your stamp will simply say, “New Mexico” along the top. There is nothing at the bottom of this ring.

Finally, in the center of the middle circle is the license number that you were given by the board and nothing else. The stamp and seal for a professional surveyor look much like the stamp for professional engineers with some modifications. Don't forget to double-check your license number to make sure it matches what the New Mexico board office gave you.

If you’ve gone to the trouble of applying for a New Mexico land surveyor stamp, you’re probably ready to get to work the moment you receive it. However, before you do, just double-check that all of the above is present so you know yours is legitimate and meets the state board requirements.
