Florida DBPR states that Alcoholic Beverages and Tobacco licensees, permit holders and applicants must create and maintain an account in the Division's online system.
Why the account requirement matters
The online account is part of the Division's licensing and applicant workflow. Licensees and applicants should keep their account information current and should confirm the Division's present online procedures before filing or responding to a licensing matter.
For transactions involving an existing license, the requirement is another reason to identify early who will be responsible for the regulatory filings and communications with DBPR.
Practical takeaway
- Confirm that the appropriate licensee or applicant has access to the current DBPR online system.
- Verify contact and account information before a filing deadline.
- Use current DBPR instructions for transfers, renewals and other license actions.
