What dimensions does Georgia require for an engineer seal?

Rule 180-12-.01 calls for a 1½-inch outer diameter and a 1-inch inner circle. These are prescribed dimensions, not a general diameter range. The product listing does not state an exact finished die measurement.

Should I sign a sealed preliminary drawing?

Under Rule 180-12-.02(4), a sealed preliminary or draft document remains unsigned. It has its issue date and a bold statement of purpose adjacent to the seal. Completed certification indicates that the document has been issued.

Does my company’s authorization number go in the stamp form?

This product collects License Number and Registrant Name. The rule separately requires firm or sole-practitioner information and applicable certificate-of-authorization details on the documents. Those requirements are not additional permanent engraving fields in this form.

Is the optional digital file a secure digital signature?

No. It provides JPG and PDF seal artwork. A qualifying digital signature has the identification, verification, sole-control and change-detection safeguards in Rule 180-12-.02(9). The artwork alone does not supply those safeguards.

Where should the signing date appear?

Place it immediately below the seal and signature when certifying the document. The date is completed for that document rather than engraved as a fixed date in this stamp. Follow the separate preliminary-document rule when the work is still a draft.

What a Georgia professional engineer stamp is for

A Georgia professional engineer stamp identifies the registered engineer responsible for the work being certified. The seal accompanies the required signature, date and applicable firm authorization information. It does not grant registration or replace the professional responsibility required by Rule 180-12-.02.

Final engineering documents include the certifications of the responsible registrants. When several professionals contribute, each identifies the portion covered by that professional’s responsibility. The rule covers digital documents as well as paper, so changing the file format does not remove the certification requirement.

The Georgia engineer seal design

Rule 180-12-.01 specifies a circular seal with an outer diameter of 1½ inches and an inner circle of 1 inch. The design is furnished to the registrant. This product’s example contains Georgia, Registered, the license number, Professional Engineer and the registrant’s name. The preview helps you check your entered identity; the final artwork follows the state format.

This page offers the Trodat 4642 self-inking mount for that Georgia professional engineer seal. Its housing photographs are product views, not scale drawings of the personalized die. The listing does not report an exact finished die measurement, and the board’s prescribed dimensions should not be inferred from the apparent size of a stamp in someone’s hand.

Your Georgia professional engineer stamp on the Trodat 4642

The self-inking housing carries a replaceable, refillable internal pad. Its open base helps position the impression, and nonslip pads steady the mount during use. The gallery includes the upright housing, its closed view, removable lid and rear view, separate from the in-hand photograph.

The listed water-based ink will not dry on glossy paper or Mylar. Use a suitable paper surface and select this model’s matching refill and replacement pad when choosing supplies. An ink color selection does not change the surface compatibility of the product.

Ordering a PE stamp Georgia engineers can personalize

Set Qty, enter License Number and then Registrant Name, and compare the live preview with your Georgia registration. Keep the licensed spelling and any leading zeros. Choose from the nine listed ink options and add Special Instructions if a note needs to accompany the order.

The optional Georgia PE seal artwork includes JPG and PDF files after creation. Digital artwork, refill ink, an extra pad and the pad-and-ink combination are independent checkboxes. The combination already includes both supplies; selecting it alongside the separate refill or pad adds extra items. Review the updated total before proceeding.

The form’s permanent identity fields match this exact product. Firm contact information, certificate-of-authorization details, your signature and the signing date belong on the engineering documents where the rule requires them. They are not additional engraving controls for this stamp.

Signing documents and handling electronic files

A Georgia PE stamp is one part of the completed certification. Put the signing date immediately below the seal and signature. Each sheet identifies the professionals responsible for it. Where the number of sheets makes a responsibility-summary table necessary, the rule specifies its certifications, allocation of responsibility and identification of current document versions. That table remains part of the documents.

A sealed preliminary or draft document stays unsigned and carries its issue date plus a bold purpose statement adjacent to the seal. A document bearing the completed seal, signature, date and required authorization is treated as issued. Copies and scans of certified documents must reproduce the required marks.

Editable electronic files transmitted beyond the registrant’s direct control need the removal notice in paragraph (8), unless certified through paragraph (9). The qualifying digital signature must be unique, verifiable, under the registrant’s sole control and linked so that later changes invalidate it. The rule also requires a secure authentication procedure and identification of the hardware and software parameters used.

The optional JPG or PDF of a Georgia professional engineer stamp is seal artwork, not an authenticated signing system. Scans of certified hardcopy documents have different treatment from editable files. Check the cited electronic-transmission provisions for the actual file you send.
