CoA | PROCEDURE FOR REGISTRATION

The Council of Architecture (CoA) states that, “Any person desirous of practising as an ‘Architect’ in India is required to be registered in the Register, with the Council of Architecture (CoA). He shall be entitled on payment of the prescribed fees to have his name entered in the register, if he resides or carries on the profession of Architect in India and holds a recognised qualification (Indian and Foreign) listed in the CoA  Schedule, or does not hold such a qualification but, being a citizen of India, has been engaged in practice as an architect for a period of not less than five years prior to 27.04.1974 or possesses such other qualifications as may be prescribed by rules .”

REGISTER

Though the procedure for registration with the CoA has been explained in detail in the CoA website, it is confusing. So I get many queries regarding the procedure. As an Architect, I have described the details of the procedure for registering with the Council of Architecture in India here under the following headings:

What is the Register of architects?
What is the procedure for getting registered with the CoA?
What are the documents to be submitted along with the application for registration?
Can you apply for registration if you have not received your architectural certificate?
What is the procedure if a mark sheet is missing?
What is the procedure to apply for change in name?
How does one apply for change of name after marriage?
What should be done if the name on the architectural certificate does not match with the name on the basis of which the registration is sought?
Can an Architect have an additional qualification entered in the Register of Architects?
Is the one time payment option available while registering with the CoA?
When is the certificate of registration issued?
When is the Register printed?
What happens if the CoA rejects your application for registration?
Does the registration with the CoA have to be renewed?

 


WHAT IS THE REGISTER OF ARCHITECTS?

The Central Government provides a Register of Architects in India. The Council of Architecture prepares and maintains the Register in accordance with the provisions of the Architect’s Act. The Register includes the following particulars:

  • The full name with the date of birth, nationality and residential address of the Architect.
  • The Architect’s qualification for registration (B.Arch. or M.Arch etc) and the date on which he obtained that qualification and the authority which conferred it.
  • The date of the Architect’s first admission to the Register.
  • The Architect’s professional address.
  • Further particulars prescribed by rules.
WHAT IS THE PROCEDURE FOR GETTING REGISTERED WITH THE COUNCIL OF ARCHITECTURE?

Earlier a person applying for registration was required to download the registration form and send a duly filled form to the Council of Architecture office.

Since I get many queries and doubts regarding registration with the Council of Architecture, I have addressed them here.
CAN YOU APPLY FOR REGISTRATION IF YOU HAVE NOT RECEIVED YOUR ARCHITECTURAL CERTIFICATE?

In case, you have not received the architectural certificate pending the award of the same by the University, you may for the time being submit a self-attested copy of the provisional certificate/passing certificate issued by the competent authority of the University i.e. Asst. Registrar/Dy. Registrar/Registrar or any other competent authorised authority. As soon as you receive the original architectural certificate, you must send a self-attested copy of the same to the registrar of the Council of Architecture.

NOTE: The Council of architecture will only accept the Provisional Certificate/Passing Certificate issued by the University and will not accept a provisional certificate issued by an institution. Also, the provisional certificate will not be accepted if the final degree/diploma for the applicant’s batch has already been awarded.

WHAT IS THE PROCEDURE IF A MARK SHEET IS MISSING?
In case a mark sheet(s) for any particular semester/year is/are missing or untraceable, you must apply for the duplicate mark sheets to the concerned institution/university and submit duly attested copies of the same. Before submitting the form, ensure that details such as name, course name etc. are correctly mentioned on the mark sheets.

NOTE: In case of change of name, only the new name must be entered under the column provided for. However, if there is any correction in the details of the name i.e., name order (First name, Middle name and/or Surname or any correction, the same can be done by cutting and correcting the same on the hard copy, at the place but it has to be countersigned by the applicant.

WHAT SHOULD BE DONE IF THE NAME ON THE ARCHITECTURAL CERTIFICATE DOES NOT MATCH WITH THE NAME ON THE BASIS OF WHICH REGISTRATION IS SOUGHT?

In case, your name or the nomenclature of the qualification pursued by you is mentioned incorrectly in your architectural certificate, or the mark sheets that you are submitting,  you must get the same corrected from the competent authority of the University/institution before you submit it for registration.

CAN AN ARCHITECT HAVE AN ADDITIONAL QUALIFICATION ENTERED IN THE REGISTER OF ARCHITECTS?

An architect is entitled to have any additional architectural qualification(s), entered in the Certificate of Registration as an additional qualification on payment of additional qualification fee of Rs.200/- (per qualification).  But only recognized architectural qualification(s)  included in the schedule of qualifications appended to the Architects Act, 1972, can be entered on the Certificate of Registration.

The additional recognized architectural qualification certificates IN ORIGINAL, for verification and return by Registered Post, along with a copy of the same duly attested by either a Gazetted Officer or Notary Public/Oath Commissioner must be enclosed along with the application for registration.

NOTE: Please ensure that the nomenclature of the qualification pursued by you is correctly mentioned on the recognised architectural qualification certificate and marksheets being submitted. In case, the nomenclature of the qualification is not mentioned correctly, you must get the same corrected from the competent authority of the University,before submitting to the Council.

IS THE ONE TIME PAYMENT OPTION AVAILABLE WHILE REGISTERING WITH THE COA?

Note that the option of availing of One Time Payment at the time of applying for registration has been discontinued. The registration shall be granted initially for two calendars years only. But at the time of renewal after the initial two years, you may make payment of the prescribed renewal fee annually or opt for One Time Payment as and when your renewal fee falls due. One Time Payment can be opted at the time of renewal, subject to submission of a duly attested copy of the final Degree/Diploma certificate received after convocation, if not submitted earlier.

WHEN IS THE CERTIFICATE OF REGISTRATION ISSUED?

If the Registrar is of the opinion that the applicant is entitled to be registered, then he shall enter  the name of the applicant in the Register and issue a Certificate of Registration. The processing of an application for registration takes at least one month from the date of receipt of application along with all supporting documents in hard copy.

After the first day of April every year, the Registrar prints copies of the up-to-date Register, which are then available to persons applying for a copy, on payment of the prescribed fee and shall be evidence that on the said date, the persons whose names are entered therein were architects.

WHAT HAPPENS IF THE CoA REJECTS YOUR APPLICATION FOR REGISTRATION?

Any person whose application for registration is rejected by the Registrar, can within three months of the date of rejection, appeal to the Council.

Now I had attached my birth certificate, 10th and 12th school marksheet in which my original date of birth is provided and posted it to COA along with all other required documents. I’m afraid weather they would consider it and give registration, or they’ll just reject it??

    Hi,
    In case a mark sheet(s) for any particular semester/year is/are missing or untraceable, you must apply for the duplicate mark sheets to the concerned institution/university and submit duly attested copies of the same. Before submitting the form, ensure that details such as name, course name etc. are correctly mentioned on the mark sheets.

    Hi,

    It took me 8yrs to complete my B.arch degree. . I completed the 1st stage of my B.arch in 6 years instead of the stipulated 5 years due to my personal problems. Can the COA register me as an architect?. Am I eligible for the registration of COA and if not how should i proceed? Please help!!
    Hi,
    Earlier it was a must that you should have completed the first stage of 3 years within the first 5 years. But in the latest “minimum standards for architectural education, 2017”, I do not see any such rule. So You could send all the required documents to the CoA and see what happens.

    Hi
    I have nationality of Afghanistan and I have a B.arch degree from Iran and a M.arch degree from one of the central university in New Delhi.
    Am I allowed to be registered in CoA !?
    tnx

    Hi,
    Normally, only if you are a citizen of India and hold a recognised architectural qualification (Indian or Foreign) as listed in the Schedule given here, will you be eligible for registration with the CoA. However, if by the law and practice of Afghanistan to which you belong, a citizen of India holding architectural qualification registrable in your country is permitted to enter and practise the profession of architect there, then you will be allowed to practise in India by reciprocity.

    Hi,
    If you are a citizen of India and hold a recognised architectural qualification (Indian or Foreign) as listed in the Schedule given here, then you are eligible for registration with the CoA. So by that definition since civil engineering degree is not part of the Schedule you are not eligible. But since you did M.Arch, I am not sure. Write to the CoA and see what they have to say.

    Or
    Can I get admission for architect diploma, so I can be a member of COA? Can I get direct admission in diploma 2nd year due to B.Tech degree.
    Hi,
    According to the CoA, if you are a citizen of India and hold a recognised architectural qualification (Indian or Foreign) as listed in the Schedule given here, then you are eligible for registration with the CoA. So by that definition since B.Tech (IT) degree is not part of the Schedule you are not eligible for registration. However you can do your M.Arch degree in some colleges abroad even without doing B.Arch.
