Hi Bruce, I am in the UK. AFAIK CEng is protected by law world-wide (Washington Accord) but not all countries or states recognise it. E.g. Texas admits only the TX PE (Professional Engineer) accreditation and prohibits using the title 'engineer' if not PE licensed, whereas Idaho does recognise CEng if held for 8+ years. It can be a bit complicated. https://www.engc.org.uk/glossary-faqs/frequently-asked-questions/status-of-engineers/
