Section 310-A:45 Interstate Licensure.
I. The board in its discretion may, upon application and the payment of a fee, issue an architect's license to any person who holds a National Council of Architectural Registration Board certificate, or to any person who holds an unexpired license or certificate of registration issued by any state, territory or possession of the United States, provided that the applicant's qualifications meet the requirements of this subdivision and the rules established by the board.
II. The board may grant an architect's license to any applicant who is similarly licensed in any other state, provided the other state's licensing requirements are substantially equivalent to or higher than those of this state.
III. A nonresident architect seeking to render architectural services in this state, who holds an unexpired license or certificate of registration issued by the state in which such person's principal office is located, and such other certification as the board deems necessary, shall be permitted to offer to render such architectural services in this state without first having been licensed by this state, but shall not practice architecture until licensed in this state.
