These honours are all a load of bollocks anyway. They're often given for the lowest of motives (see the current issue of Private Eye for two pages of interesting examples).

Any architect registered in any EU Member State is entitled to practise in any other Member State. To pratice in the UK you do not need to hold a UK qualification. Similarly, a UK-qualified architect is entitled to practice in any other EU Member State.

Quote from http://tinyurl.com/h6okfa9

"To work as an architect in another EU country, you must apply to the authority that oversees the profession in that country, providing proof of your qualifications. The authority must:
acknowledge your application within 1 month of receiving it, and ask you missing but necessary documents to process the application
assess your qualifications, and decide whether to grant your application within 3 months (or 4 months for certain complicated cases in the area of non automatic recognition)
If you do not accept their decision, you can appeal to the relevant court in that country"
