ARCHITECTS ACT 2003 - SECT 18

18 Temporary registration of overseas architects

(1) The Board may register an individual as an architect for a limited period if:

(a) the Board is satisfied that the individual is of good fame and character, and

(b) the Board is satisfied that the individual has architectural qualifications and practical experience in another country of a kind that demonstrates that the individual would be capable of practising architecture in the State with the same level of competence and skill expected of architects with full registration.

(2) Registration under this section is "temporary registration".

(3) A person granted temporary registration is registered as an architect until the temporary registration expires or is cancelled. Temporary registration expires on the date stated in the relevant certificate of registration unless the period of temporary registration is extended.

(4) The Board may from time to time extend the period for which temporary registration is in force.

(5) The Board may cancel a person’s temporary registration for any reason that the Board considers proper. Cancellation does not affect any application for full registration by the person.

(6) The Board may impose such conditions as it thinks fit on the temporary registration of a person and may at any time remove, add to or vary those conditions by notice in writing to the registered person.
