Architectural Partnership Approval
From 1 July 2005, the proposed Partnership must comply with Section 10 of the Architects Act 1991 as amended 2004/05 and with the requirements of the application form as follows:

  • 2.1  Is a member of the Partnership who is registered as an architect under the Architects Act 1991 responsible for carrying out the architectural services provided by the partnership? YES/NO
  • 2.2  Are the architectural services provided by the Partnership carried out by or under the supervision of a person who is registered as an architect under the Architects Act 1991. YES/NO
  • 2.3  Is the person referred to in 2.1 and 2.2 covered by the insurance required under the Architects Act 1991? YES/NO

Applications must be submitted using the Partnership Approval application forms.


The annual fee is recurring. These fees are independent of the annual fees paid by the architects Partner(s) for their personal registration in Victoria.

Applications are considered by the Board at its monthly meeting.

Maintaining Partnership Approval


  1. If fees are not paid annually the Act provides for suspension from the Register.
  2. You are required to advise the Board in writing of any change of address or changes to Partner(s) within 14 days.
If you require any additional information, please do not hesitate to contact the ARBV office.
