| Frank Ross Architects |
Answer: Always
Explanation: Generally, Design Professionals do not need to reside in the same state where the project is to be located and the actual design work (drawings, etc.) do not need to be produced in the same state either. Almost without exception, however, the 'Architect of Record' who is stamping the drawings DOES need to be licensed in the state where the project is to be located. Moreover, each Design Professional is generally responsible for certifying (stamping) their own 'Design Documents'; example: Architect's generally stamp only the 'Architectural Documents'and Engineers only stamp the 'Engineering Documents' respectively. |

| Indwell Architecture & Design |
Answer: Always
Explanation: People go through a very rigorous process to be awarded the title of “architect”. The reason is because of the power they hold in their collective hands. By signing/sealing drawings the architect is taking responsibility for the construction documents. Every state that requires architects to sign/seal drawings (there are some exceptions, but for the most part it is pretty much a given that for every building typology an architect needs to be involved) requires them to be licensed via the Board of Architecture in the given state. Architects can’t get licensed without first being registered nationally via the National Council of Architectural Registration Boards (NCARB). |

| ProMatcher |
Answer: Always
Explanation: A person can only use the title "Architect" if they are licensed in the state(s) they are practicing. If they are not licensed in the state they are practicing they cannot stamp drawings there as it would be illegal. It is the state who issues the license/ registration number to the design professional. However, a architect can use a local architect to act as architect of record but still cannot call oneself a architect in that state to provide services. |

| LAND ARCHITECT Michael Romo |
Answer: Always
Explanation: I believe all states require architects to be licensed in there state before they can work or stamped drawings for commercial work. Residential work can be iffy, as some stats like Maine may not require an architect for residential work, that being said they can not represent themselves as an architect if they are not licenced by the State. That would be miss representation and a complaint could be file by the state for practicing in the state without a licence. Very confusing to say the least! |
