The New Zealand Registered Architects Board (NZRAB) is required by statute and regulation to:

• register architects who have been assessed as competent

• review each architect's registration every five years

• maintain a New Zealand Architects Register

• investigate complaints.
   

Our vision is New Zealand architects equipped to make the best possible contribution to the built environment.
 

New Zealand's architects are professionals that typically have been through a five-year architectural education and have all undergone a rigorous registration procedure. Architects are bound by an architects’ code of ethics, are required to undertake regular professional development activities, and are accountable for their actions to the New Zealand Registered Architects Board.
 

For more information, you can:

• follow the NZRAB on LinkedIn
• receive by email newsletters and other announcements
• receive specific updates about initial registration.
