Florida Tax Administration: Registering, Filing, and Paying Taxes

Overview

Florida's General Tax Administration Program oversees over 30 taxes and fees, providing guidance and resources for individuals and businesses to fulfill their tax obligations.

Registration

To collect and pay taxes in Florida, individuals and businesses must register with the Florida Department of Revenue (DOR). This process involves obtaining a Florida Tax Identification Number (FTIN) and registering for specific taxes or fees applicable to their activities.

Filing and Payment

DOR provides various options for filing and paying taxes, including online, by mail, or through authorized third-party providers. Taxpayers are expected to file tax returns and submit payments on time to avoid penalties and interest charges.

Property Tax

Property tax in Florida is administered locally. For assistance with property tax matters, taxpayers should contact their county property appraiser and tax collector.
