What this digital seal is for
Your digital texas engineer stamp identifies you on engineering work prepared for Texas. Under the board’s sealing procedures, a seal identifies the licensed engineer responsible for the work and the scope of that responsibility. The seal must be used with the required signature and date when final engineering work is released. Buying a seal does not establish licensure or authorize someone to seal work outside their responsibility.
The Texas board design and your licensed details
The Texas Board of Professional Engineers and Land Surveyors publishes the authorized seal design in its vendor instructions. It is round, with STATE OF TEXAS, a central star, your name and license number, and LICENSED PROFESSIONAL ENGINEER. Physical and electronic seals must be no larger than two inches in diameter, and the name and number must remain clearly legible (§137.31).
Use the name currently listed with the board: your given name, an accepted variation or initials, with your surname. Nicknames and titles such as Dr. or P.E. do not belong inside the seal. If you legally change your name, the rule requires a new seal. The preview updates as you type; the final layout follows the board’s illustrated format.
Your digital seal files
Both a JPG image and a PDF document are included with this Texas electronic engineer stamp. The files are prepared with your licensed details and emailed after creation; they are not an instant download. There is no physical housing, ink color, replacement pad or refill bottle to select. A Texas digital PE stamp supplies the seal artwork; your signature, date and the security of your engineering documents remain your responsibility.
How ordering works
To order a digital Texas engineer stamp, enter your licensed name and number, add any special instructions and review the quantity. Both file formats are included automatically. Check your details carefully before ordering because the designer creates the files from the information you provide.
Electronic sealing in Texas
Texas permits electronic seals and signatures under §137.35. Engineers may securely transmit a copy of properly sealed and signed hard-copy work, or create an electronic seal and signature for electronically formatted work. A seal image by itself is not an electronic signature or a document-security system. The engineer remains responsible for protecting the seal and signature files and applying them correctly.
Texas engineer seal questions
- Is the digital Texas engineer stamp an instant download?
- No. Your files are prepared with your name and license number and emailed after creation. Both JPG and PDF are included; this product does not include a physical stamp.
- What name should appear on my Texas seal?
- Use the name currently listed with the Texas board: your given name, an accepted variation or initials, with your surname. Do not substitute a nickname or add a professional title inside the seal (§137.31(d)).
- How large may a Texas engineer seal be?
- Texas limits both physical and electronic seals to two inches in diameter. At any size, the licensed name and number must be legible (§137.31(b)).
- Can I preprint blank forms with my Texas seal?
- No. The board prohibits preprinting blank forms with an engineer’s seal and using decals or other seal replicas (§137.31(e)). Reproducing completed, sealed and signed original work is treated separately.
