What Your Seal Must Show
The Delaware Association of Professional Engineers publishes specific rules for what a Traffic Engineer seal must contain. When you seal a document you take responsible charge of it — you certify that the work was prepared by you or under your direct supervision and that it conforms to the applicable codes and standards. EngineeringID generates seals that match the board’s format requirements, but it is your responsibility as the sealing professional to confirm compliance for your specific document type.
Required elements for a Delaware Traffic Engineer seal:
- Full legal name
- License number
- Professional Engineer
- State of Delaware
Delaware seal format: Design: Circular seal · Size: 1.5 to 2 inches
Statutory authority: 24 Del. C. §§ 2719–2720

Getting Licensed
To seal documents in Delaware, you must hold an active Traffic Engineer license issued by the Delaware Association of Professional Engineers.
License eligibility:
- Active, current Traffic Engineer license with the Delaware Association of Professional Engineers
- No restrictions, suspensions, or disciplinary actions on the license
- Continuing education: Delaware requires 24 PDH per 2 years to keep the license current
- Government-issued identification that matches the license record
Delaware licensure requirements: ABET-accredited engineering degree, 4 years experience, FE and PE exams.
Your Traffic Engineer license already represents your qualification to seal documents. No additional examinations or certifications are required beyond your initial licensure and any mandatory CE required by Delaware.

Staying Current: CE Rules
Delaware requires 24 PDH per 2 years of continuing education for Traffic Engineers. Complete it before your renewal date — the board verifies CE at renewal and generally will not accept credits earned for a lapsed cycle.
- Keep certificates of completion; Delaware can audit your CE records after renewal.
- Courses must usually relate to your area of practice — confirm provider approval first.
- Carrying CE over from a previous cycle is typically not allowed.
Your digital seal remains valid as long as the license stays active, so completing CE on time keeps both your license and your sealing privileges uninterrupted.
The Application Process
- Create your account. Sign up with your work email and provide your full legal name, phone number, and profession.
- Enter your license information. Submit your Traffic Engineer license number and select Delaware. We verify it directly with the board; optionally upload your wallet card for faster review.
- Verification (1–3 business days). We confirm with the Delaware board that your license is active and unrestricted, then email you when it's done.
- Start sealing. Your seal is available immediately — apply it in the web app or your existing PDF workflow.
Keeping Your Seal Valid
Your seal remains valid for exactly as long as your underlying Delaware license is active and in good standing. When you renew your license with the state board, your seal is automatically renewed with no action required on your part.
License renewal basics:
- Renewal period: typically every 2 years for most Traffic licenses
- CE requirements: Delaware requires 24 PDH per 2 years — complete it before each renewal
- Fees: paid directly to the Delaware board
- Submission: through the board’s online portal or by mail
If your license expires: Your seal becomes invalid for new documents. Previously sealed documents keep their seal as a historical record, but verification will show the license is no longer active at the current date. Renew and your seal reactivates automatically.
If your license is suspended or revoked: Your seal is invalid immediately for new work. Historical seals remain verifiable but are clearly flagged. Reinstate the license through the board’s process to restore sealing privileges.
Best practice: Set a calendar reminder 60 days before your license expires. Keep your EngineeringID email address current so renewal notifications reach you.
Why Go Digital
Both ink stamps and digital seals are legally valid for professional sealing. The difference is how authenticity is proved and how easily a seal can be misused.
Ink stamp:
- Authenticity depends on a visual impression and handwritten signature
- Easy to photocopy, harder to detect forgery
- No audit trail of who applied the stamp or when
- Must be physically present to seal a document
- Replacing a lost or stolen stamp is time-consuming and expensive
Digital seal:
- Authenticity is guaranteed by a cryptographic signature bound to the document
- Any modification after sealing is immediately detectable
- Every seal is timestamped and logged
- Works from any device, anywhere
- If a device is compromised, the seal is revoked from your account immediately
For most modern workflows - electronic permit submissions, email delivery, cloud collaboration - a digital seal is the more defensible option.
