What Florida asks of a business with a website

These are some of the Florida and federal rules a small business with a website runs into:

• 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 Ocean Breeze, that means asking Martin County and the Town of Ocean Breeze. Sections 205.032 (counties) and 205.042 (municipalities), Florida Statutes
• What your website says about prices, results and reviews has to be true; Florida’s Florida Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act applies to online claims too. Section 501.204, Florida Statutes
• If your website sells products, collect 6.5% on most taxable sales delivered in Martin County: 6% state tax plus the county’s 0.5% surtax for 2026. DR-15DSS (2026)
