Local Business Tax Receipt

Formerly the occupational license. Almost every Florida business needs one, and many need two.

Who needs this

Nearly every business operating in Florida. Most locations need both a county receipt and a city receipt, and home-based businesses usually need one too.

What we handle
  • County and city business tax receipt applications
  • Determining every jurisdiction where you owe one
  • Coordinating with your Certificate of Use where required
  • Annual renewals so nothing lapses
  • Updates when you move, expand, or change your business
Common questions

I work from home. Do I still need one?

In most Florida jurisdictions, yes. Home-based businesses generally still require a local business tax receipt, and sometimes a home occupation approval. We confirm what applies to your address.

City AND county? Really?

In much of South Florida, yes. If your business sits inside city limits, the county receipt and the city receipt are both required. We file both together.
