The legal basics for Belle Isle businesses online

A website doesn’t need a special license, but the business behind it follows the same Florida rules as any other.

• Florida counties and cities may each levy a local business tax for the privilege of doing business in their jurisdiction (Chapter 205, Florida Statutes), so a business can owe a county receipt and a city receipt. In Belle Isle, that means asking Orange County and the City of Belle Isle. Sections 205.032 (counties) and 205.042 (municipalities), Florida Statutes
• Fake or bought reviews are illegal under a federal rule in force since 2024 (16 CFR Part 465): post only real ones. 16 CFR Part 465
• Out-of-state sellers have to collect Florida sales tax once they pass more than $100,000 of taxable remote sales in the previous calendar year. Section 212.0596, Florida Statutes
• In Orange County, the 2026 discretionary sales surtax is 0.5%, so most taxable sales carry 6.5% in total (the state’s 6% plus the county surtax). DR-15DSS (2026)
