DBPR Vacation Rental License
Florida’s state licence for renting a dwelling to transient guests.
Why you care
It is a separate state requirement on top of everything local, issued by the Division of Hotels and Restaurants, and it brings a balcony and life-safety inspection regime with it.
Worked example
A single-family licence runs roughly $170–$400 a year depending on how many units you hold. Required before you take the first booking.
