A Licensed Surveyor is a Surveyor who has met all of the requirements of the Surveyors Board of South Australia and is currently registered and listed in the South Australian Government Gazette. To be a member of this list a Surveyor must have attained a University Degree in Surveying and then fulfilled the minimum two years requirement of practical experience under the guidance of a licensed surveyor as well as have the required minimum of $20,000,000 in Professional Indemnity Insurance.
 
Only Licensed Surveyors can undertake Cadastral Surveys and certify cadastral documents lodged with the Lands Titles Office. Therefore it is very important that when seeking advice to do with Cadastral Surveying you make sure that you are speaking to a Licensed Surveyor and not a so called property developer.
 
To check if a surveyor is licensed or registered in South Australia, a published version of the Register is made available annually in the South Australian Government Gazette or you can pick a member of the Consulting Surveyors of South Australia who have been suitably vetted and follow our Code of Conduct.
